This was the ONLY guy doing any exercise on Muscle Beach. Everybody else was doing what I was doing - eating!
This guy has a unique way of making a living! He wasn't selling many signs, but enjoyed posing for the picture.
One of the good things about L.A. is that they are very dog friendly. However, they don't have sense enough to leave their dogs in the shade with a bowl of water!
After the disappointment of Venice Beach, next I visited the La Brea Tar Pits. I don't get exactly what it is - seems to me to be some bubbling sludge pool. But some people think it's important, and it's a million years old (give or take). I'm just glad I didn't have to pay to get into it!
Don't get me wrong. There are beautiful parts of Venice Beach too. The beach itself is beautiful!
Now THIS was the best part of Venice Beach. A mural of Jim Morrison! The artist did a great job in capturing his likeness!
And there are some nice buildings!
And, I really loved this little neighborhood on the canal. The homes were so adorable. This spot is used in a lot of TV shows and movies.

The bubbling sludge pool (Tar Pits)
Oh, the sludge bubbles up all over the grounds.
I should have been more careful not to step in it!
