Just Beautiful.
One of the top places in CA I want to see is the Santa Clarita Valley...
What can I say, I watched waaaay too much Knight Rider as a kid (maybe still), lots of driving scenes filmed through there.

It is a picture perfect example of every other cookie cutter white flight neighborhood. 19 years there, and as soon as my parents move out I'll never see it again. Won't miss it either. :)mechanicjay wrote:Just Beautiful.

All I'm saying is that I want to take a drive on Hiway 14 from Santa Clarita out past Agua Dulce to El Mirage because the scenery captured my imagination when I was a kid... :)

Enjoy your drive, Mechanicjay! Must everything now be viewed through some sort of political correctness prism? Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Re: Itinerant Days Of Freedom . . .
i dont see the problem..just a tangential comparison between the monoculture of concrete and plywood vs the diversity of crumbling infrastructure and NO parking.
As for the sweep of 14, it does navigate thru some interesting terrain...maybe San Andreas will reclaim its purity one day...

I saw beauty all around me. It is beautiful, the light, the topography, the skies, the grasses, the trees, the night sounds, everything around and beside and above the cookie cutter neighborhoods that have spread like mold. I love the canyons and the railroad tracks and *faraway* light glitter. I will leave it at those morning photographs 10 miles from Railroad Avenue. They are what I saw.
I had a lovely warm night outside of Las Vegas under more stars with mountain shapes in the inky sky and Las Vegas just making a gold halo over the lowest part of the pass from which I had driven. It was amazingly hushed even as I saw car and truck lights glide up the Blue Diamond Highway. And people tell me all the time how Las Vegas is too noisy/tacky, and it is, but I love where I see it from.
