down town


Downtown (5th and Flower) at a job talk dinner: surely any candidate must find Los Angeles irresistible? - given that it's only 20 minutes drive north to our rural views (cf all those leaves, last week); half an hour from here, maybe, to the ocean, and - well, usually, sunny.  It's been bathed in Pacific fog and dankness all day - not exactly Vancouver, but not sunny Southern California, either.  I don't remember ever standing and looking at this sculpture before, on its reflecting pond, but by night at any rate, it's a pretty good advertisement for urban vibrancy.
