La Canada, Before/After a Storm

by Attila on December 31, 2004

The hills have been especially gorgeous today, half-shrouded in the sky by clouds of ambiguous intent. Every winter I’m astonished again at how beautiful Southern California is during the winter, in between rains.

And downstairs our little patch of grass is visible. A baby bunny kept emerging today from the bushes to eat the green shoots.

Now it’s dusk, and I won’t be able to see the mountains or animals for much longer. And I’m raging, raging against the dying of the light.

Tomorrow the Rose Parade will air, and people from around the country will begin making plans to move here. I can’t blame them, but be advised that our housing costs are just this side of Tokyo’s.
