Saturday we made our first drive up to Los Angeles, since moving to the west coast in December. We spent the day at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, checking out the Stanley Kubrick retrospective as well as the permanent collection. I'm not a film nut.... I have only seen a couple of Kubrick's films but there's no argument that he was wildly creative and diverse in his film-making.

Sunday we stopped by the bonsai show at Balboa park. Bonsai is always a treat to see, wrinkled backdrops and all!
