On a run back in June, Raven informed me that Mark Covert, the man who has maintained the longest running streak in the U.S. to date, was going to end his streak on July 23rd after 45 years, 16,436 days, and 149,652 streak miles.
Being the streak running groupie that I am, I decided to make the trek out to Lancaster, California to document Mark's last run. In doing so, I also had the opportunity to chat with the second longest streak runner, Jon Sutherland. Is it just me, or does this make anyone else giddy?
It's streak running gold out in California.

Harry Perry
I was walking down the Venice Beach boardwalk with a friend when I first ran into Harry Perry.
I began talking to him and then stopped somewhere mid-sentance and said, "You are such a beautiful man...those eyes..." he smiled and told me that love was coming my way. Such a sweet little encounter. I love California.

Lucidity Festival: Part I
So, I've packed up my bags and headed out to LA to intern for a lovely photographer, Joe Pugliese. If you don't know his work, you should. It's absolutely stunning.
In California it's necessary to embrace the weird and wonderful...thank you Lucidity for taking me there.
Fun times in Santa Barbara.
"Lucidity is an open-source transformational arts and music festival. We call it open-source because we will be co-creating this festival experience with YOU! We invite you to come play with us, get involved with one of our six themed villages, bring art, lead a workshop, spark a spontaneous flash mob, embody a character from your dreams, be silly and wild and free! We are bringing together a world class lineup of musical talent and weaving them together with the sounds and vibrations of our beloved local stars. Our galleries will showcase the sickest fine art our region has to offer, promising to enrich the festival as a visual voyage. Art installations will pleasure participants with multi-sensory stimulation while themed environments will create intimate settings for personal connections. Lucidity’s environmental commitment is to leave Live Oak better than before." ~Lucidity Website
