mayberry

El Segundo is a little town that borders Manhattan Beach - its an amazingly cute little hamlet that almost seems trapped in time. Its locked in between a water treatment plant (so it has no oceanfront), the airport, and a huge Chevron refinery. In between is El Segundo - appropriately often referred to as 'Mayberry by the Sea'. Today they had the Richmond Street Fair, so I biked over to meet my friend Casey and strolled around. Inflatables seem to be popular! Lots of arts and crafts and a massage at the Beach Massage and Spa booth. The beer garden was a disappointment, but the Richmond Street bar and grill next door had some Paulaner and Bratwursts, so we ended up there before biking home along the beach. Little community things like this are part of what I love about living here.
