California Revisited
In November I spent two weeks visiting Los Angeles. One of the highlights of the trip was driving the Pacific Coast Highway from Santa Monica north to Ventura. I recall the beauty of the communities nestled on the hillside, overlooking the spectacular beaches along the Pacific Coast. Now the Pacific Coast Highway is a disaster zone, parts of it are closed, and the areas that are open offer a devastating landscape of burned-out houses, lost memories, and misery.
