Festival of lights

Another holiday tradition before putting up our own lights

It's the biggest in the world and we love tamales.

Awesome band

My buddy Tom plays with his group Cover Story. Great music, all the classics. Saw them play at Over the Top bar in Palm Springs last night. It was great except for the Mongols bikers getting plowed next to us.
