Up in Monterey

Alaska, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati and San Diego (think of the latter as Cincy with decent weather, an ocean, much higher prices) within 10 days time in that sequence–and their not so subtle differences in light, space, time zones, flora and fauna–will put the zap on anyone’s head. For the next 5 days, and over Labor Day, I’ll go to Big Sur and then Cannery Row to re-group, sharpen tools, re-read the rules, meet with some serious idea mongers and try out new ideas of my own.
