Welcome to LALAland...

[colleendetroit]

I can drive one hour north, turn around, and see ↑ this.

I can drive one hour east and be in the deserts or mountains.

I can drive one hour (less) south or west and be at the beaches.

IN CONCLUSION:
I ♥ L.A!

View after sunset tonight from Mount Wilson of the Los Angeles basin, and beyond to the Pacific Ocean.

A blimp flies over downtown Los Angeles, with a Dodger game in progress at Chavez Ravine in the foreground and a USC football game at the Coliseum behind downtown.

Catalina Island can be seen in the distance to the left along the horizon. ♥
