Photo-A-Day 2013: Week 36

The week started with the last full day in Maui. It was such a great trip to Hawaii, one of those “never want to leave” visits. After that, the week of Sept. 2-8 normalized, as it was time to get back into the swing of work — and USC football season. Let’s take a look at the images (and, remember, to see full-sized versions, just click directly on any image).

Photo-A-Day 2013: Week 35

Yep, we headed for Hawaii on Wednesday. Pretty much all you need to know about the week of Aug. 26-Sept. 1 — though I did capture one helluva sunset at Dodger Stadium before we headed for the islands. Without further ado, let’s get to the images (and, remember, to see full-sized versions, just click directly on any image).
