I am particularly fond of these photos because this area of Santa Monica was one of my old playgrounds when I first arrived in California in 1959. Eventually, after spending 5 years in the U.S.Navy, I returned to this area and found it slightly changed, but still a fun place to reside for awhile. My thanks to Lance for permitting me to feature these priceless photographs of a time long gone, an era with some fond memories. These are much more than snapshots, they are images of a history of the 60s generation.
