Arrival

| LA at night |
We didn't leave Nevada until nearly four in the afternoon
on Sunday. We drove so we got into LA pretty late.
Minerva loved it but we were pretty rummy by the time we arrived.

The Piccadilly is right in the middle of downtown but
was built in 1928 and embodies the charm of old Hollywood.
We have a top (7th) floor, two bedroom apartment.

M. Lee found the place on AirBnB. It's way nicer and cheaper

| The Mulberry Tree by Vincent van Gogh (1889) |
Van Gogh did this painting shortly after entering the asylum near Arles.
Less than eight months after completing it, he committed suicide.

Whatever anyone thinks about the "morality of marijuana",
growing pot and selling pot legally in the US is not only good medicine
and a good business, it castrates the cartels by gutting their profits.

I love the NS Museum! Haven't been in ages, but it's one of my faves. I'll have to mosey on up one of these days. Did you ever get to Venice in the old days when it was really wild? It's so tame now. Hope you had a lot of fun. :)
I was a member of the Krsna movement at that time and living in the LA temple but I did get out there once, needing a break from temple life.
