A word about my blog .....

I'm using this blog to keep notes on my life and experiences, plus to keep track of my own recovery from a stroke (December 2006).

For those of you who were not aware, my brother, John, died on February 10, 2010. His remains were cremated and interred at Green Hills Memorial Park.

COMMENTS ARE ENCOURAGED, WELCOMED AND APPRECIATED.

0116 art 101

The Santiago Art District is just west of the Santa Ana Amtrak Station and takes up a few blocks. It is mostly artists’ lofts, used as display spaces. Every 3rd Saturday of each month, they hold the Santa Ana Artwalk, from 7pm to 10pm. It is free to the public and gives the artists a forum to show-off what they have done.

After finding a place to park, we headed off in the direction of a food truck that we had spied during our search for parking. We hadn’t had dinner and it smelled good. The truck was Diaggio, and the menu boasted of delicacies such as Argentine Sausage with Chimichurri in French Bread and Spinach & Feta Cheese Empanadas. We ordered a sampling of dishes in order to try and taste as many as we could.

Once dinner was finished, we looked in several of the open lofts for looks at paintings, photographs, and sculptures. It was very impressive.
