I got a kick out of this Times piece on
Santa Monica, CA. One of the key sites they mention, the museum on the Santa Monica pier, is a place I’ve never
visited in my life, despite many years in and around Santa Monica. But they get a few of the other places right. Santa
Monica Beach, surfing, the Third Street Promenade, all great places
to hang out in one of California’s best cities. It’s nice to see the Times, usually so Right
Coast obsessed, give some props to our folks out West.
