I agree: He...Hi Havisham! Thanks for dropping by. <br /><br />I agree: Hederline will get over it. Petrea made a good point, that his arrogant comment was just a distraction from the real issue. How true. <br /><br />Glad you contacted Chris Holden.

Such powerful and moving perspectives out there. <br /><br />Liz, thanks for sharing the lines from that song. Very apropos. Definitely sounds like California. <br /><br />Pasadena Adjacent and Bellis, hope to meet you out on the trails someday.<br /><br />Latino Heritage, I feel the same way about Pasadena. We're lucky to have so much green in the midst of LA sprawl. <br /><br />And thank you, Petrea, Karin, and Barbara, for creating Hahamongna blog day!

Very eloquently written and expressed. I ...Susan, <br />Very eloquently written and expressed. I cringe when I see all the condos going up along La Jolla's coast. Reminds me of the words to one of Don Henley's songs - "The Last Resort."<br /><br />"Some rich men came and raped the land,<br />Nobody caught 'em<br />Put up a bunch of ugly boxes, and Jesus,<br />people bought 'em<br />And they called it paradise<br />The place to be<br />They watched the hazy sun, sinking in the sea."<br /><br />I think he was writing about California.
