It's finally a new year! - PST

Well 2007 has come and gone...and not fast enough. We're off to a completely fresh start in 008 but not without some favourite refuelling stops first. It was great to catch up with some friends even if relatively brief. The flakers better represent next time...you know who you are!




Spots were hit. Fantastic meals were had. Weather was great - only one day of inclement skies on the last day in the city.




Nothing quite leads in to a day of wine tasting in Santa Ynez quite like Tom's tri-tip and some other local adult beverage.



Winter in Santa Monica.



After a day of power shopping...domo arigato to Matsuhisa-san for the tiradito.

Walking the SkyBridge at the Getty Center.

Sunset @ Malibu

What's a New Year's party without topless sapphic fire dancers.




Here comes Santa - MST

Well it was truly a white Xmas this year up at the ranch. A good time was had by all and far too much food was consumed - at least by me. Next stop - L.A.


Yes, there really IS a Santa Claus!!!

This was NOT on the list!


What's Christmas without a little product placement. Thanks to our sponsors.

It was definitely a year of elaborate 'presentation'
