Re: Today

Lost Hills is down near Buttonwillow, David. If the hills were lost, it was
a long time ago--the area's as flat as table top.
I couldn't believe it when I got to Twin Cities Road--I neary go off just to
look around. Then when I got to Elk Grove Boulevard... and saw that they had
signals to meter the commuter traffic onto I-5, I couldn't believe it. And
Sacto looks more and more to me like it's trying to follow LA's master plan.
