Skyline

I went downtown with a friend the other weekend.  As we were marveling at the tall buildings I began to wonder where the US Bank building was.  After all, it’s the tallest building in LA, so how hard could it be to find it?  All afternoon I asked.  “Where is the US Bank building?”  She didn’t know, and was probably beginning to wonder if I had made up the building altogether.  Finally later in the day at the pillow fight I turned away from the action and found it.  I was validated!  Later that evening I looked at my pictures from the day, and noticed something.  There, in the first pictures I took downtown, was the US Bank building.  You can see it in this picture; in the top right corner.  In my defense, it’s partially hidden.  But still, there it was, right in front of me, early in the day.  What a nerd.

Oh and in case you were wondering.  The tallest building in Kansas City would only be the 13th tallest building in LA.  I know you were curious, because I was curious.  Apparently the rounded building in the bottom right of my picture is the third tallest building in Los Angeles.

Pillow Fight

Happy Easter!  Here's a pillow fight!  It was in downtown Los Angeles yesterday, and was pretty dang cool to see.  There were feathers EVERYWHERE.  Also, there was just a 7.2 earthquake in Baja California, Mexico as I was writing this.  It shook LA for a long time!  Whoooaaa..
