LA almost 100 years later

Last week I had to go to Los Angeles for 2 days for business. All I could think about was the differences between now and when my granddad traveled there. The one day conference was at Mary Pickfair’s estate. Granddad had a postcard from there. He also traveled to Venice Beach and Ocean Park and I drove over there to see it for the afternoon. The traffic was horrible though so I didn’t stop except for a second in Venice Beach. I sure would have loved to have seen the area thru my granddad’s eyes
