California isn’t a bad place to start our adventure. We are finally relaxing and really enjoying visiting our friends, the Santa Monica farmer’s market, The Hump (sushi), The Stahl House, Tom’s birthday, The Santa Monica Pier with Lisa, Emily and Maddie and chilling on the porch with Noelle and Chloe. Oh, and we can’t forget...LEGOLAND. We’ll add Archer’s pictures when we meet up with him tomorrow.

And it all begins

Tom’s 40th: The Stahl House

Case Study House #22, aka Stahl House, is a modernist styled house in the Hollywood Hills section of Los Angeles, California that was designed by Pierre Koenig. Photographic and anecdotal evidence suggests that the architect's client, Buck Stahl, may have provided an inspiration for the overall cantilevered structure. Built in 1959 and part of the Case Study Houses program, the house is considered an iconic representation of modern architecture in Los Angeles during the 20th century
