Weekend roundup.
South Bay LA, at night
The Shipwrecks of Playa del Rey
I find the whole thing rather puzzling...
I’ve heard weird stories of “maritime law” allowing folks to moor 100 yards from the beach, a short distance but enough to escape the long arm of the law (apparently). Which sounds all fine and good until a swell comes and wrecks your boat.
And once washed ashore, the city doesn’t seem to care. Why aren’t they hauled away? There are 3-4 of these things wedged in the sand right now, and the most we’ve “done about it” is put up some caution tape. Weird...

California-grown coffee scores #27 on the Top 30 Coffees of 2014 by Coffee Review.
I visited Good Land Organics in August 2012 (and wrote about it here). This experience led me to quit my desk job and move to a coffee farm in Hawaii (also wrote about that here).
Huge congrats to California growers of awesome.
This past September my girlfriend Michelle and I drove up the West Coast for a few weeks to visit some old friends. I took along my camera and drone and put together this video.

so, it’s true. after 6 years of owning and renovating and renovating some more and living in the most interesting home in l.a (which is saying something, as there’s no shortage of interesting homes in l.a) i’ve sold wolf’s lair and moved on.
wolf’s lair was built in the 20’s on 4 acres overlooking almost everything: the reservoir, the hollywood sign, griffith park, the observatory, hollywood, downtown, and on clear days catalina and the channel islands, 40 miles away. then in the 60’s john lautner re-designed and re-built the guest house (which i posted pictures of about a year ago).
it was and is an amazing place. a bucolic and storied 4 acre hilltop retreat in the middle of a city of 15,000,000 people.
so why did i sell? simplicity.
i loved wolf’s lair. but it was just too elaborate for one simple little guy (aka: me).
if i’d started a cult or a family(and trust me, i’ve tried to start both)it would have been the perfect home. basically i wanted something simpler than a mountaintop castle.
oh, over the last few years i took a bunch of random pictures of wolf’s lair. and as we all like some good voyeuristic architecture & design porn, here are some of the random pictures (including deer, coyotes, and some of my houseguests and their knife wielding kids. oh, and one picture of wolf’s lair when it was first built in the 20’s).

voyeuristically yours,
