LG: Stranger LA Sightings 1

For a long time now I have collected a series of pictures. They aren't just any pictures, they are Stronger LA Sightings. These images have been taken in the beautiful city of Los Angeles. I take a lot of pride in my city and scenes it has to offer. Enjoy!


First and foremost: City of Los Angeles



Bet you didn't know Coach had car designs!



Check out these SPINNERS on the Ice Cream cart!


When gas prices go up...WARNINGS go up as well!


There's a little store where you can get ALL kinds of remedies for any illness...including DIARREA TEA!


No one is taking this Candy vending machine...it's CHAINED to the wall!



Little chunky kids flicking you off is apart of LA too...Manuelito


And last but not least...the Notorious Low-Lives chillin in front of my house hustlin' MaryJ. No joke.


The transaction being made.


Stronger LA Sightings never fade...there will be more.

ML:Home sweet Home

First things, first. 
Allow me to introduce to you the foundation that housed me my whole life, up until about 2 years ago...

There she is...
This is my home in Waverly, Illinois. 
It is a beauty :)

10 years ago I went on a family trip.
10 years ago I stepped into a new country.
10 years ago I tasted some of the greatest food
10 years ago I experienced a new way of living.
10 years ago I met long lost family members.
10 years ago I rode in the back of my grandpa's truck.
10 years ago all the stories I had ever heard as a child became true.
10 years ago, I went to El Salvador.

Those 10 years are over and I am ready to go back.

I'm finally going to go on my mission trip to El Salvador in the Summer. The dates of the trip are June 13-23, only ten days. We will be going to Las Delicias, San Miguel. Helping the ENLACE organization build relationships and a better community for MY people in El Salvador.
