November 7
Palos Verdes Peninsula
November 7, 2006.
77F, crystal blue sky, slight ocean breeze ... man what a place. There are days when you look around ... your eyes drink in the beauty of the ocean, cliffs, coves ... the sun warms your face and the sea breeze cools the body ... and you wish for time to stand still just so you can take your time and savor it all. Yesterday stood out because it is November ... where much of the rest of the Northen Hemispere has winter blowing down the street and knocking on the door ... I was basking in the warmth along the coast ... watching dolphins nose in and out of kelp and squadrons of pelicans gliding above the waves.
Funny thing, yesterday could have been a page out of September, July or May, it's all the same. In winter one can dive or surf in the morning, snow ski in the afternoon and have dinner in Hollywood. Almost makes up for the terrible traffic, horrible housing costs and endless jokes of Californians.

PS- There is a theory that had the Europeans landed on the West Coast instead of the East ... there would not had been any Manifest Destiny.
