It's a great place, and you just have drive a little to find it, just like you have to scratch the surface to find all the great people - it's like that surprise spring under highland, and under la cienega. <br /><br />I'm so glad you had a good time - it was great to see you - so many good people. It would have been lovely to have caught up with everyone.Criticlasmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15942568777607340234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-75608794584516506222013-09-15T11:47:56.516-07:002013-09-15T11:47:56.516-07:00I sometimes wonder about the energy of L.A, and wa...I sometimes wonder about the energy of L.A, and was it the energy inherent in the earth there that drew all the people it did, or did the people create the energy just by all showing up together? Anyway, I do love the energy of Los Angeles, and the ocean, and the sun.

Personally, I love LA. It reminds me a lot of Miami -- bright and gaudy and colorful and loud and crowded, and definitely cultural, if you're willing to cast a wider net for what's defined as culture. A love-it-or-hate-it kind of place. I love them both.Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-65913767740316967432013-09-13T21:48:20.920-07:002013-09-13T21:48:20.920-07:00I like your attitude.

It makes such a difference when we can endeavor to see things from their sunniest side, doesn't it? <br /><br />I do hope Tanya comes to Seattle to read.
