When SantaBarbara had had enuff of me after 16 years - I stayed with friends in SanJose to find out what that was about ...& was utterly & totally Lost. Very Urban Suburban sprawl... From there I came back to NewHampshuh here. It wasn't the 1960s California @ all. Altho in the late 1980s I could still get a charge up my kundalini spine visiting the Haight...
