What a great perspective in this one. I love Santa Monica pier. I have to next find one you may have taken of the Merry-go-Round on the pier. One of my favorite spots. l/f
Laurie Search replied:
Oh, you know, Mary, I didn't get any good shots of the merry-go-round, as they had the area immediately surrounding it (the tables and chairs inside) blocked off for a party!! I was kind of bummed about that, too!! But thank you so, so much, Mary!! I really appreciate your wonderful words and support!!! :)))
