Holiday Weekend in L.A., Week Twenty-Two in the No Longer New Abnormal

How could it be that the weather in New York City is better than the weather here in Los Angeles? This is my second trip in the last few years and it’s also the second time when it’s too chilly to enjoy the “always” good weather of L.A. As the day goes on the sun warms the streets, not to a perfectly mid-70s day, but at least the temperature rises to the high 60s.

I booked a hotel with a pool, but I don’t know if the heated water will keep me warm in the early hours of the morning. It would be great to swim as the sun rises. I imagine I’ll wake up early since it’s three hours later in New York, and I have yet to adjust to West Coast time.

As it turns out the pool is properly heated and my solo swim at 7 am was long and luxurious. No one came to the pool, and I was able to have an under-water meditation in motion. A great way to start my day.
