L.A.roadtrip: Train to San Bernardino Mountains

Train trip from Union Station to San Bernardino's old train station for a visit to Lake Arrowhead and Crestline. For some reason, lately, my mobile phone's camera is freaking out when there is bright light present. That's why the train station looks all Resident Evil and Lake Gregory looks post-nuclear...(photos taken and sent via mobile phone)

L.A.roadtrip: Lake Arrowhead

Quick getaway in the nearby mountain communities of San Bernardino to spend Mom's birthday with Mom (!) and family. From downtown L.A., I'm always surprised it's a mere hour and a 1/2 drive. Though, since I rented a Mini Cooper through Flexcar, I could've driven to Canada...Had dinner at Finn McCool's in Twin Peaks to see Wake The Bard...(where I had 3 Smithwicks and 3 Irish Coffees and couldn't barely get a buzz--must've been the altitude)...



visited nearby Crestline and had lunch with some family at Rocky's in Sky Forest.
