Yes, you all get a break from me! WAHHOO! I'm taking a few days off from my SkyFox duties beginning tomorrow through next week. Nope, I have no elaborate, exotic vacation plans. Instead, I plan to tour around Los Angeles. I think we forget how much there is do in our fine city. We are just minutes away from amusement parks, great hiking, the ocean (and insane surf spots) and amazing museums. I will be catching up on some much needed rest, but I plan on mixing in a long mountain hike, a trip to LACMA and the Getty Villa. I'll for sure log some serious hours at the beach and in the water and will likely take in a movie or two (I have yet to see the Dark Knight). I also have tickets to two Dodgers games. I get to see our city’s FIRST PLACE TEAM  and Man-Ram in action!

I am looking forward to some fun, mellow, low stress times in my own backyard. We live in such a great city that offers so much. I see it from the air every morning, now it's time to cruise around at sea -level. I think we all take it for granted at times. Have a great weekend everyone and see you in another week. I’ll try and get some photos of my L.A. VA-CAY!

Rick

Hey Rick! A voice from the past here...Just checking out the website and saw the video with the old photos - that high school hair brings back some memories...wow. Cracks me up to think of you and ??? with your hair all perfectly styled. Then again, the 80s had it's effect on all of us, didn't it?! Are you guys still in touch? I remember the days when you just started working for FOX. I can't believe it's been so long! Just wanted to say hi and let you know that it's so great to see that you've done so well for yourself and your family. I hope the girls are doing well! Would love to see pix of you and the fam. Take care!

Rick,
You're absolutely right about there being so much to do and see in LA. I think the native Angelenos forget what they have in their own yard. I've visited LA several times. I really really enjoy my visits. Even all the sites and cities around LA ... San Diego, Big Bear, Palm Springs, Santa Barbara. You all have an incredible place to live!
