OF PALM TREES AND POWER LINES

1.29.98

So, I'm driving along (not really sure where) and I come to this spot that is fairly flat. The highway that I'm on (possibly the 405) is slightly raised. And all I can see around me are houses. Well, the tops of houses, that is. And towering above all of this flatitude and domestitude are palm trees and power lines.

Aparently there is a huge power plant nearby to explain this massive cluster of phone lines, power towers, cable and steele.

And then, palm trees.

I can't say I'm a big fan of SoCal palm trees. They look very odd like something out of a Dr. Suess book or a Ralph Steadman print. They look prickly and sinister as though they might drop some spiny mass on your head at any second.

Maybe it's just me.
