Lobster Rumble 2014 (Los Angeles, CA)
It’s been less than a year since the inaugural West Coast Lobster Rumble and my how things have changed! This time, I had my fancy camera, so the pictures will be a bit better, even with the “eh” lighting. Ready for the tour? First of all, it was so much more popular that the parking lots […]
