Lamy to Las Vegas


A familiar stretch of scenery, and a glimpse of something we would experience at the end of the trip. As the saying goes, Viva Las Vegas, New Mexico.



L.A. to Albuquerque, part 2


As I recall I couldn't argue with this combination of roomette, scenery, sunrise and reading material. One hopes it worked for Mrs. as well.

Everywhere

What's this? A new restaurant in L.A.'s Union Station called Everywhere? Well it's primarily a bar with some food but it makes good use of this fabulous former Fred Harvey restaurant space - a space where the art deco architectural detail is so intact that you feel like you've stepped into an early Bette Davis film.





L.A. Union Station


Los Angeles Union remains one of my favorite train stations because you're in the center of the nation's second largest city but the vibe is incredibly mellow, even sleepy.

Traxx revisited


The best restaurant in L.A. Union Station. Been here many times but Mrs. was overdue for a visit. It's not clear whether she had been here or not. In any case the salad and mezze plate were healthy and delicious.
