Last week we had new gates built.  To replace the new gates we had built about this time last year.  Apparently, you should never hire people who make their living digging holes and planting sod to build you walls and wooden gates.  That should be left to (and I know this will sound strange) masons and carpenters…

I recall the whole of that area being really seedy and crazy. Not as crazy mind you as the complete whack-jobs and fruit loops we saw at Venice Beach. You are living in one CRAZY place my friend!!
