Santa Monica Pretty House- 4

Clancy and I woke up and heard the sound of helicopters flying right around our neighborhood. So we chose to head out in that direction and grabbed the camera. I knew we'd wind up going through some of the fancy neighborhoods, but wanted to see what all the commotion was. Turns out there was an accident in the wee hours of the morning from a probable DUI that caused some pipe to burst and all hell broke loose.

Within the first four blocks of our walk, we were greeted by people who were (literally) singing "Hello!" to us and smiling as they walked by. One woman stopped to gush about how adorable Clancy was and marvel at how much puppy was in his 7-year old body (this happens a lot). I'm all for saying hi and being friendly, just ask anyone who knows me, but it was so weird it made me look around wondering if I had wandered onto the set of that Jim Carrey movie where it turns out his life was a movie (what was the name of that?).

Anyway, Clancy and I couldn't really see any of the action, apart from the three helicopters and the resulting traffic backing up on the PCH and all over Santa Monica, so we merrily went on our way to capture more pictures of the fancy houses.

This morning's walk (with a little bit of running) took us along Ocean Avenue and up Adelaide. The house we went with today is one we walked by yesterday, but I had a better shot of the house heading east on Adelaide (as opposed to west, where I was coming from yesterday). See for yourself:

Favorite Part: I'm a sucker for green! Plus it's very "New Englandy".
