... at least superficially. This was taken from the car when stopped at lights on Santa Monica, heading, in the early morning, for a dentist's appointment. This wasn't my first appointment during Covid - I couldn't do that to my mouth - but it was far, far and away the least stressful. And there wasn't much traffic. This is a strangely deceptive picture: all that greenery is not some public space stretching away, but plastic fencing round a construction site. There seems to be a whole lot of construction going on - but also, and very obviously, a large number of shuttered businesses. LA isn't looking that much like LA, yet, and one wonders what it will indeed be like when - we all hope - it comes back to more life in a few months time ...
