Return of the 70s!
At least in temperature. This afternoon I borrwed E.W.'s bike and rode it up the bike path on the west side to 96th. People were out sunbathing, rollerblading, running. On the breeze, you could smell the ocean.
One of the first times I visited L.A., I stayed with my cousin. She worked during the day and so she lent me her bike and her rollerblades and pointed me towards the bike path along the beach. As I rode up to Santa Monica, people would pass. "On your left," they would say. It took me the better part of an hour to realize they were signaling their presence to pass. In New York, that etiquette doesn't seem to exist.
