Throughout the country, state parks, historic sites, homes, buildings, museums, and similar institutions are struggling to continue operating. Because of general financial problems, many of these institutions are operating on a reduced schedule or in danger of closing. Some are being forced to sell off artifacts and property. Many will not weather these hard times without your help. Places Earth urges everyone to support these vital and important public resources any way you can. Please donate your treasure, time, and talent. Write to your governor and other elected officials telling them to find a way to keep state parks open. It will be your loss. Public Service Announcement | Test space for future ad if donations don't increase. |

Down Town Los Angeles
All photographs taken by Kenneth A. Larson. All rights reserved. © 2003 - 2012.| Los Angeles, once thought a backwater, is now the second largest city in the United States. Once accused of having no culture, it is now the art, design, and entertainment capital of the country, if not the world. One of the largest cities in the US by area, it rises from the Pacific Ocean into the mountains of the Angeles Forest over 30 miles away. Los Angeles didn't have a natural harbor, so it built one. When the Los Angeles River, the main water source, wasn't big enough, Los Angeles stole another. With a population of 3.6 million people in 465 square miles, Los Angeles is not a dense city. Including the surrounding area, 14 million people make the area home. |
