Los Angeles has gotten a lot more crowded since I first moved out here, though, it's easy to understand why. It was about 80 degrees and sunny today. A warm gentle breeze was blowing. At sunset, the water was a mixture of deep blue and gold reflecting off the sky.

#2 If they are listening to IPOD's or whatever a bell ain't going to cut it, you will need an Air Zounds
