Veterans Day and Muscle Beach
Not only am I very proud to have been the photographer of both of these photos but both Travis Ely and Stephanie Lugo are Veterans of the United States Marine Corps. Is that not perfect for Veteran’s Day today!
I am very happy to be a continuing supporter of Muscle Beach/Venice. Some years ago, I remember walking along that boardwalk at Venice Beach and seeing the huge guys working out in the “Pit” right there. Those were the guys of the Golden Age of Bodybuilding. How exciting to be living that history today! So come on out to Muscle Beach this coming Summer and you can be a part of it too!
F/A-18 Hornet Marine Red Devils
A United States Marine Corp F/A-18 Hornet coming in to Palm Springs Airport a little more than an hour ago. The F/A-18 Hornet is a twin engine supersonic aircraft designed as a fighter and attack aircraft. This one is from Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 232 (VMFA-232) nicknamed the “Red Devils”, based at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar CA. It is the oldest and most decorated fighter squadron in the Marine Corps.
