A New Moon
There are so many historical markers and gorgeous scenic vistas in California, I was hard-pressed to choose a location for the Moons Over Monuments premiere photo shoot. Then lightning struck, we’d go to Point Dume, Malibu, Natch!!
I love Point Dume; it’s gorgeous and is the setting for, possibly, a gazillion TV shows and movies. My fav Point Dume cameo is the final scene in Planet of the Apes, where Charlton Heston curses at us maniacs for blowing up the Earth.
Also, I got married at Point Dume 8 years ago. In all honesty, one of the main reasons we chose Point Dume for our vows is because of the Planet of the Apes thing, oh and it’s purty too.
While not a traditional ‘monument’, Point Dume is a California State Park and has significant historical and natural value. Therefore, I shall deign to moon it.
Come back later in the week for a tale of an early morning hike, an unsuspecting Dume tourist and a whale heading out to sea.

Beautiful picture! I also love Seen impersonating Charlton Heston. I love the story about Point Dume too. Congrats on the new blog!
I’m so excited that this blog is finally rockin’. This is going to be so much fun, I’m really looking forward to all of the excited adventures and subsequent posts. Now go shake your money maker.
