So, Joseph (videographer extraordinaire) and I (photographer) had an assignment to cover up north from our fair little City of Los Angeles.  Hence, I thought I would share some of the photos taken from our exciting trip.  This post will be broken down into a few parts so that you (The Reader) may enjoy this trip a little at a time...don't ya love when I do that? 

So, up the Grapevine we trekked and made a little stop along the way for gas and to pay a visit to none other than Casa de Fruta!  I mean this place had some of everything, it was truly a cornucopia of fruits, vegies, spices and sauces!  Check out the photos below and you'll see what I mean!































This photo was taken right at the pumps where we re-fueled...windows to one's soul.



This little piece of art was in the same parking area...I like for some reason. 



On the way to gas station we noticed this little specialty shop appropriately named Case de Fruta! Yum!



The Fruta Truck was designed with fruits in mind, si?







Chili and garlic!







Yes, I was fascinated by this fruit truck!  This truck even had little cute sayings on it like....Dog is man's best friend because they practice the same hygiene!  Hmmm ... I wonder who added that little gem?




Okkkkkkk? So Joseph was looking for something in particular...he says " I know it's gotta be around here", serious as can be.



Tangy Apricot Chipotle Sauce!!!  Oh, I have that all that time....NOT! LOL  But he says it's good for grilling marinade on fish and meats!  Jo knows his foods and spices!



One of my Faves, Pistachios!!



Fudge!





They Casa de Fruta had a great selection of fruits and spices, stuff I have never scene before.  If you're headed up north, this is one place ya gotta stop!


And of course one outside, there was no stopping Joseph from eating some of the delectables...not even a sign precariously placed!




Well, this concludes part one of Joseph's and I road trip up north....I'll be posting more in a few days of actual San Francisco!  What a place, it's like Disney Land for photographers!  Wonderful people and lovely places to share and have fun....but of course we were working as well.
