Palm Springs/LA

Heath and I made a trip to Palm Springs + LA a couple of weeks ago. Here are the highlights...

Our trip started with a drive from LAX to Palm Springs...Sam kept me company.

Not a bad way to spend the weekend. It was 110 degrees F in PS that weekend.

Unbeknownst to me, the palm trees need trimmed back every year. We watched in awe as a local landscaper performed this tedious task in the heat. Can you imagine???

I love these pillows we saw at a new restaurant in PS...I will now start my search for this fabric!

And my first experience with Vegemite. Our lovely friend Brad is Australian and officially introduced me to this oh so popular treat. It's quite good on crackers with Earth Balance.

And I was a typical Hollywood tourist one evening, so excited to see Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts walking into the Larry Crowne premiere from my hotel room.

And finally, a trip to the Universal wardrobe department...so fun to get lost in here!

Our independance day.

NYC #2

I'm gonna post a few more pictures from NY !
I had to do the tourist tour :

The Flatiron Building

The Empire State Building

Time Square under the rain

Me Oanh and Jim in front of the Chelsea Market

A few more pics from the High Line

Central Park, and the weirdest caterpillar

The Guggenheim Museum, from the outside. We didn't have much time and it was closed at that time of the day

I have now arrived in Lisbon, Ohio

Here is a picture of Me Oanh taken by a local artist, exhibited in a museum in Youngstown !

We just arrived from that farm next to Lisbon, where you can pick blueberries

New Version of Blogger

Okay family, some things have changed on Blogger. Now you can use the updated version of Blogger (or you can continue to use the old version).

If you want to switch to the new version, where you will be able to add more than 5 pictures at a time and be able to easily change the order of how the pictures appear, follow the steps below.

Go to 'Settings' as shown below 'Le Quang Family Blog'

 Scroll to the bottom and click next to 'Updated editor', click 'Save Settings'

 Now when you add images, you can select as many as you'd like. When your images are uploading, they will have a blue rectangle around them...you can click on them to 'select' and 'de-select'. The first image below is selected, since it has a blue rectangle. The second image is not selected, since it does not have a blue rectangle around it.

 To choose the order of how your images will appear in your post, de-select all images, so that none of them have blue rectangles. Then select the first image you want to appear by clicking on it, then the second, and so on and so forth. Make sense? :)

NYC

A few pics from around the city last week...

Highline Park, a beautiful park on the west side of the city.

Water to wade around in on a hot day...

Some great scenes from an evening walk

And...best of all...we went to see Sleep No More. It's a play that's put on throughout a multi-story hotel where you have to discover the actors and follow them around to see more of the scenes. And all of the audience members have to wear masks.

Just some inspiration...

Eataly! A great space with lots of fresh product, Italian groceries and all different types of food stations.

4th of July

Heath, McKenzie and I celebrated the 4th of July in New York, watching fireworks over the Hudson River.

Peter Gabriel

A couple of weeks ago, we went to see Peter Gabriel + the New Blood Orchestra. They were incredible! The orchestra played along with every song...so memorable.
