Paradise Around the Corner

Right when I begin to dislike the rain, something happens to bring me back to my original passion.

I found myself in paradise while driving down Topanga Canyon this morning. The sun was breaking through the clouds, and I was in a wonderland of sparkling raindrop-covered leaves and flowers. This part of the commute is always particularly beautiful, but as I rounded the sharp corners on my way down to PCH, I was overwhelmed by the view. The mountains were the deepest shade of green, and several waterfalls had formed overnight. They now flowed majestically down the green mountainside and into the river, reminiscent of views from Kauai.

Our little house truly is in paradise. If only L.A. wasn't looming so close...
