South Bay View: Looking north from Hermosa Beach at the Manhattan Beach Pier and El Segundo, a view I've photographed many times before. Gentle waves break on the shore.

So with the hideous pollen levels in the South Bay, I've tried running the house fan more, part of the central air. I use the higher-end filters that trap small particles, so figured I'd give it a go - along with running air filters.

Seemed to help. I'm going to try running the fan for 20 minutes 3 times a day to see if it helps. Even with air filters running, it's a pain.

Glass, Steel, Rails and Wildflowers: A Walk in Manhattan Beach

Lately whenever I take my car in for maintenance, I end up taking the car-free morning away from home as an excuse to walk down to the Manhattan Beach Pier. The last time was right after a Halloween storm, which was gorgeous, but this time it was a gloomy morning, and I took the opportunity to explore a little more. Modern Beach Town This mural wasn't there the last time I walked by, and may not have been there the last time I drove by either. The restaurant is new, and it seems like it would be hard to miss. I like the mix of two cities: the one I was standing in, and its namesake on the other side of the country. Also: a pirate shipwreck. Yarr! Believe it or not, this next photo is not a double exposure: I don't think I'd ever seen this type of traffic sign up close before. At first I was intrigued by the five-LED pattern used for each pixel, but as I started to line up a photo, I noticed the layered effect reflecting the street and the buildings on the far side. […]
