Kilts & Camels

First day of my seasonal job was today. I waited on a guy in a kilt. No joke. He and his wife, dressed normally in jeans and their children were buying some last minute Thanksgiving things. I didn't laugh out loud or anything though, don't worry.

Then on my way home, I went further down Colorado Blvd. than I normally would and went down a random side street. It ended up dead-ending at the Huntington Library, and I recalled a few years ago when I found myself in the same area and after some random turns came across the most picturesque storybook cottage looking house I had ever seen. So I decided to see if history would repeat itself and made more random turns. I passed a street and thought I saw a camel. I didn't think it was possible. I thought of turning around but decided against it, yet after a mistake, I found myself on a narrow street and there was a police car and a huge trailer with an open door. I wasn't sure if I would be able to fit between the space between the 2 to go around, but was able to with no problem, yet as I went around and was by the trailer, I found the camel right next to my car. I went up to the stop sign, then turned around and snapped a pic on my Blackberry. It's not the best picture because I was 2 houses down and I can only zoom so much, but you can see that it is a camel.


So the question I pose tonight is this: Have camels replaced ponies for things like kid's birthdays? Maybe I should have stopped to ask.

Oh and I didn't find that house, however once I was back on track to getting to Huntington Dr., I saw a small street that I think was the one it was on. (This is my crazy memory kicking in to remember such random, insignificant details of life..I'll expand on that tomorrow) So I think I'll wander around another day, but this time do it on foot. Then I get exercise and I can stare at the houses and not be a distracted drive as I would be if I were driving.
