City Sky / Country Sky

Two recent photographs:  The Pasada Motel on old route 66 in Pasadena, Calif.  The sun soaked scene gives the motel a more inviting appeal than it may actually warrant.

 A stately walnut tree on the highway between Solvang and Los Olivos, Calif.  This was a very productive area for walnut trees. Today the grape has taken over the region, and wineries abound throughout the Santa Ynez Valley and the central coast of California.
