I woke up at the crack. Not exactly sure why I do this, but it seems to be engineered into my molecules. I headed down Mission and got on the 101 going north. Destination – Lompoc. There are a few memories that are seared into the cells of my grey matter. One of the, a [...]

Yes, California really does look like this. I remember now, hitting fog so dense that I had to drive on the while line with my car door open, just to stay in the middle of the road. But that was years ago. That fog seems to have lifted now. Metaphorically, other fogs will lift too [...]
