Beach Town Aura
I am part of the Carlsbad beach town aura as I ride my bicycle to and from yoga class, wearing sandals, yoga bag slung over my back. And it's not just that Carlsbad has a beach town aura, it is a beach town. In California.
I frequently find it alarming to live in a California beach town, but it is August, and the weather here is perfect--so I'm not alarmed, just shocked and pleasantly disembodied. How can I possibly have a body if I'm part of an aura? May and June are like February back East, but now it is nice. I will never vacation in August as long as I live here.

"How can I possibly have a body if I'm part of an aura?" -- that's one of th best questions i've heard in a while.
enjoy beachtown weather -- it's positively brutal here in the southeast...
p.s. going to hear gillian welch thursday!
I don't believe that may and june are like february back east
Tom--yes, the southeast is probably sweltering. But I bet spring will be gorgeous.
Ryan--of course you don't believe me.
