This is an empty flower bed in front of my apt. bldg. We used to have flowers here year-round. Impatiens in spring & primrose in winter.

This is my apartment building.

This is a neighborhood church. AA and Jazzercise meet in the basement.

This is our gas station on the corner of Van Nuys and Ventura. A red Hummer is speeding through the crosswalk.

This is a homeless woman in front of El Torito on Ventura Boulevard.

This is our neighborhood hand car wash.

This is the homeless woman as I looked back at her.

This is my sushi bar.

This is the Casa Blanca Hair Salon where Cathy and I have our hair cut.

This is an intersection near our apt. bldg. An Audi and a BMW are crossing.

This is my street.

This is my secure front gate.

These photos are of my living room, bathroom, toilet and kitchen--a cat is on the floor, eating.

This is my bed.
