Los Angeles via Hurricane, Utah 4







Time for side two of this loose album page.  So, don't blame me because things are crooked.  Who ever put this album together didn't help out by cutting off borders from the individual photos and the seller didn't help either they way they cut the album apart.  Looking at this first row of images I have to wonder if the two guys that appear in so many shots worked at a gas station.  Well before self serve, gas stations, especially in a big city, needed staff.  Too, since most places offered basic mechanical service as well, it would have been a good starting place for two couples newly arrived in L.A.  When I started in on this collection I wrote that I actually recognized a location on this side of the page.  The bridge in the final picture is near Marina del Rey.  Today it's foot traffic and bicycles only.  Take the Ballona Creek Bike Path to the ocean and you'll get there.
