Life in California: Something Out of the Ordinary
Most people think California is all about glamorous celebrities, the beach, easy breezy living, and palm trees. As a long-time resident who has lived in just about every major city in California except for Los Angeles (I vowed "never" to live there, but you never know!), I've traveled up and down this gorgeous state which is home to a wealth of agriculture.
There's a long stretch between San Francisco and Los Angeles which has been torture for me to drive in the past because it's just a straight drive with miles and miles of flat land. Fortunately this past weekend I was a passenger on a trip to Magic Mountain with my family who live in Central California...When lo and behold, I caught a shot of one of those oil drilling thing-a-ma-jiggers...
Not really sure why I was so intrigued by this picture. It's just something out of the ordinary that many tourists don't get to see. Now you know.
And here's a shot of the grape vines which also grow in Central California, but are very common in Napa Valley, of course.
I'm taking a trip to Napa in the next few weeks, so stay tuned for pictures!
