4 Polaroids from Wednesday

Wednesday morning I took a trip east in search of adventure. Here are four Polaroids I took that day.

While in Beaumont I stopped to photograph the 1939 Beaumont Theatre, which is now home of the Beaumont Antique Mall. The ladies running the place were lovely, and how could I resist "instant relatives" at two for $1?

The same Broadway formal shop, but a year apart and with two different cameras and films.


(January 2015 update: This dress shop is now a Gap Outlet.)

You Can Always Go....

We weren't alone, and life wasn't making us lonely, but my sweetie and I hit the streets of downtown Los Angeles nonetheless. It was a warm August evening and absolutely wonderful.

Clifton's Cafeteria is undergoing an in depth renovation, which recently uncovered what is being considered "The World's Oldest Neon Sign".

 The 1913 Rosslyn Hotel buildings are now lofts. The neon of both buildings is tremendous and visible nightly.
