California Messages: Part One of a Series

Congratulations and thanks if you sit through this long vid! At first I thought it would be fun, then shelved it; but here tiz: Part One of a California Messages Series to be posted sporadically. This is a combo of California sights and actual messages from my phone answering service (don't worry, they won't all be). Sound strange? Maybe so LOL. Let me know your feedback. It gets exciting @ 6 minutes, with friend Tim's talk about Neptune being retrograde and pianist Andrew Johnson's Chopsticks compilation arriving at a roaring Jerry Lee Lewis highlight!

The California sights shown are:
Wayfarers Chapel, overlooks Catalina Island; designed by Frank Lloyd Wright's son, Lloyd
Disneyland Park (sorry, I got into shooting just balloons!)
Huntington Gardens
Walt Disney Concert Hall
Beverly Hills (Rodeo Drive and Wilshire Blvd.)
brief stops at both the beach and the Somecrust Bakery, temporary headquarters of the (fake) Claremont Community College, (a brief statement by the Chancellor himself).

My thanks to Andrew Johnson for permission to use his fantastic piano compilation/performance based on the Chopsticks theme! (there is also some happenstance music in the background of friend Tim's messages) Andrew can be found at www.youtube.com/forrestgump1546

I watched Part 2 first so here I am. I used to live down the street from Wayfarer's Chapel in PV. I know several people who were married there - no wonder -such a beautiful spot.

I love the Huntington Gardens. too. You sure got around while you were there!

This was so interesting and unusual with the messages and chaotic representation of Gehry's Disney Concert Hall- you are just so creative. I love it when people think out of the box.
