$UZAY - daily tangents...

Back from LA...

and had a blast!  The wedding was amazing!  Congrats Qiana & Kenchasa! 

I was a gypsy the whole time roaming from Pasadena to Redondo Beach to Inglewood (aka Just LA per Eboni)... so this is what I saw the most... I forgot how crazy LA traffic is!

Getting there was a little crazy... and it was written all over my face when my brother dropped me to the airport Saturday morning!
