Last week I went to Los Angeles on my way back from Bangkok. Kind of like a one week pit stop. It was pretty cool. I stayed with Keith and his crazy little dog Suzy, who tried to eat my Spirulina pills! Anyway, it was great to see him again and also to enjoy the laid back West Coast lifestyle for a week.

Aside from just chilling and partying in LA, we also made an excursion to the Sierra Nevadas. We hiked around the Mamoth Lakes area, which is just southeast of Yosemite National Park. It's a beautiful little area. Some of the lakes are not so nice, but others are as clear and clean and the New England ones I am more familar with. Here's some photos from my week out there. More photos on my flickr page!
