Downtown LA

Olympiad 1984 by Milton Hebald, Rome 1986

Handstand by Milton Hebald, Rome 1986

I have been wanting to go to downtown LA and the central library since winter break but due to colds we never made it until now.  We started at the central library which is my favorite place and I could have spent all day there but the rest of the crowd is not as excited about books as I am.  For the record, Jacob checked out 8 books on origami.  Next I wanted to see the sculptures done by Milton Hebald.  I met him about a year ago and he told me about his sculptures at the YMCA on Hope Street.  Finally, Michael wanted to see the new Grand Park and it was grand.  Since it was a warm day the fountains were popular with the little crowd.  There was a Starbucks there which I am sure will get a lot of business.  All in all a good day in Downtown LA.

The Box

Continuing with my photo card clean up. I always wanted to blog about Jacob and his box.  He seems to find purpose in empty boxes.  The picture does not do justice to the mess that was in his room with the bits of Styrofoam.  Jacob would fit himself in this box and use the flashlight for I don't know what, he could hardly move in the box.  These photos are also from 2011, it must have been a busy year. 

Many Faces of Jacob

I was cleaning up my photo card when I found these pictures from way back in 2011.  Jacob clearly had fun with the camera that day.  Let's see what else I can find.
