Whee, Indigenous Peoples' Day! This trip to the
16th Annual Gabrielino/Tongva Before Columbus Day Festival at
Serra Springs/Kuruvungna was a good advance scouting trip for what ought to be an annual event. Anything with music, waterplay, crawdads, tamales and local history is A-OK by me!

"Whatcha doin' Jackson?" "Nothin'. Just hangin' out with my cool dad, holding a shoe and bein' bald." |

For some reason I felt compelled to prove there are crayfish in the spring ponds. See: Crayfish! |

This is the inside of the museum located at the site. It used to be a "classroom" in the "horticulture area" of my esteemed alma mater, University High (which is on the same lot as the springs). |

Wide shot of the springs. There's a lot of water there, I swear, it's just hard to see from this angle. |
