well, i've discovered why people think california's so great.
'cuz up until recently, they had to go through nevada to get there.
and idaho.

though really, it's got its own beauty about it. used to the buildings in philly and the trees in monterey, everything seemed stunted and squashed for a while, the colors all muted and the sky so big... but the people are nice, and really i'm ridiculously content sitting for hours staring out the window and listening to live and counting crows.

also, i can attest to the existance of tom's tangerine sours, even in tiny little cowboy towns in nevada. i would, however, advise against eating the entire tin between elko and winnemuca.
