Santa Monica ArtWalk

After Saturday morning's community bike ride, we got ready for the Santa Monica ArtWalk.

But first, no trip to Santa Monica is complete without a stop at Tito's Tacos. A neighbor to Santa Monica, Tito's has served up slow-cooked Mexican food since 1959.

Aside from its long, out-the-door lines, Tito's is special to us for a couple reasons. It was our first date 8ish years ago (an awkward double date) and then, it was our pre-proposal meal before we drove to the Pier (I'm romantic like that...).

After some grub, we headed over to the Santa Monica Airport to see Daniel Edlen's vinyl exhibit at ArtWalk (you may remember my 3-piece collection from Daniel).

Hosted in some old airplane hangars, over 60 local artists opened their studios to exhibit their work.



It was pretty cool to see Daniel's stuff up in the main hallway, and even more fun to hear people comment about which pieces they liked -- especially after producing the introduction video to Daniel's work.

So! Busy weekend. But totally worth it.
