3:10 to Yuma

Yesterday was a beautiful day. Cleo was off on her bike with some pals and Amy went into her office in the morning. Around 11:30 Iris and I drove to the east side of the Hawthorne Bridge and parked, then walked across the bridge and into town, passing thousands of walkers for the "D'feet of ALS" on the way. We met Amy for lunch and she decided to quit work for the day.

She and Iris went to the Glenhaven skate park, where Iris smashed up her elbow.

Later in the afternoon we all went to the movies, to see 3:10 from Yuma, starring Christian Bale and Russell Crowe (and Peter Fonda and Gretchen Mol). It was a good, old-fashioned western and pretty good.

The night before we had watched Empire of the Sun, starring Christian Bale -- when he was just a lad. He looks pretty much the same. It was a little startling at first, seeing him so young. Another surprise in that movie is that Ben Stiller has a small role.
