A morning of errands.<\/p>\n
It’s a typical California day. For all the faults of California one thing I can say is that the weather can’t be beat. except perhaps by Hawaii… Then again who wouldn’t want to be in Hawaii?<\/p>\n
Dropped the top on Pacific Coast Highway and enjoyed the sun & sea. I’ve always wondered what it would be like to live on PCH. I know it would be a madhouse in the Summer months. I lived for a couple of years in Huntington Beach, several miles from the ocean and even that was almost too much on the weekends.
Maybe one day I’ll get to have one of those nifty townhomes along the ocean, at this point I’m thinking it’s not terribly likely.<\/p>\n
I think if I was going to have a place like that I’d prefer it to be on the big island… perhaps in or around Kona.
I have no idea what I”d be doing to pay the mortgage It’s a nice dream though.<\/p>\n
I stopped in a Starbucks in Sunset Beach, including my little netbook there was enough computing power to solve all but the most complex weather simulations. I’m always taken aback because I remember the days when computers were luggable, Black & White, used 5.25″ disks and weighed in at 40lbs. The other striking thing is how isolated the people are.<\/p>\n
They’re all sitting together in a rather smallish space, and it’s dead silent. Didn’t coffee shops used to be social gathering places? Now eveyone is on Facebook, Twitter, or whatever. Ironically they’re reaching out to people that may be half a globe away, and missing the companionship to be had right in the same room. What a very strange place we find ourselves in now.<\/p>\n
I’m off to finish the rest of my appointments. If I spend too much more time observing people I’m going to be late.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
