"The restaurant was said to have the best Thai
food in Newport Beach. He shook out the
peach-sherbet colored napkin and put it on his
lap, trying to prevent himself from drumming his
fingers on the table as he waited. Too bad there
was no view of the water from the table"
83
"He lay on his back and stared up at the night
sky, the redwoods mostly obscuring the stars. He
had never enjoyed hide-and-seek, but the Grove
wasn't place to let such feelings be known"
84
"Some people never knew that on a clear winter
day atop Mt.Wilson, when the winter rains had
washed the smog away, you could see out 25 miles
to Catalina. When you were up here on a day like
this, you could see how astronomers had made
important discoveries from Pasadena, something
usually inconceivable when the inversion layer
was working its usual black magic. Still, it was
silly to insist on this kind of obscurity for
their meeting."
85
"He watched her posting with some gallant
awkwardness around the ring. The vaguely
comforting smell of horse sweat and manure
couldn't obscure that distinctive tang of
California in the summer sage, mugwort, and
eucalyptus, present only on days when the marine
layer didnt dampen the dust."
86
"The thick adobe walls of the house made it so
air-conditioning wasn't necessary, even during
the 90-degree weather of a Napa Indian summer. He
was glad not to have to listen to that constant
hum --- the noise of the pool filter, the
sprinklers, and the crickets were about all he
could take."
87
"His office faced south and east, so that his
views were of Treasure Island and the Bay Bridge,
not of Alcatraz and the Golden Gate Bridge. That
was fine with him."
88
"He always tried to be the last person down the
slope, with ski patrol unobtrusively following
behind on the last run of the day. The blue
shadows on the lake and snow gave him a feeling
of peace, which he paused to admire while he
threw back his last slug of grappa of the
afternoon."
89
"They put their packs down, perching on a granite
outcrop still warm from the spring sun. Their
path had turned them east, so they could no
longer see the brown haze over the valley floor."
90
"His hostess droned on about how the house had
escaped the great Berkeley fire of 1923, and the
living room was an exact twin of one created for
display at the Pan-Pacific Exposition of 1915. Of
greater interest were the curious figures
surrounding a ceramic pot on the mantelpiece. He
was wondering how soon he could escape."
91
"Actually, he thought it was a bad idea to have
the meeting here. They were all distracted by the
motion of the waves outside the windows."
