And DON'T FORGET to add your expedition and the best photo you took to the gallery on the Main Page! We'd love to read your report, but that means we first have to discover it! :)

Plans

Drive by on my way from San Diego to Los Angeles. I'm sure I won't be able to get close, but might as well see how close I can get.

Expedition

After getting off the 405, I drove down Rosecrans Ave, turned at Vista Del Mar Blvd. and found there was no where to park anywhere close to the refinery (reasonably enough). So I snapped pictures of the refinery fence as I went by, then grabbed on picture of me to prove I was in El Segundo at least. It was an entertaining side-trip.
