Let the Sun Shine

The sun shines differently in southern California. There is a unique combination of altitude, pollution and humidity in this land of eternal summer that makes this place feel like home to me no matter how long I've been away. The moment that I enter the Los Angeles Basin, I feel like I'm right where I belong. Furthermore, although other people who move here after living in more northern clines say that they miss the changing of the seasons, I don't. The only season that I ever miss is summer, and that only happens when I'm away. It's good to be back, if only for a little while.
