Recent trip to LA to visit my daughter. She took me up to Wisdom Tree and we had a lot of fun. I still don’t love LA but she continues to chip away at me.

This seems a shame and a uniquely American issue.

A row of palm trees stands in front of a large gray building with clear blue skies above.A rugged dirt trail descends through dense greenery with a view of a town in the distance.Inside a bus, the view shows seating, handrails, and reflections from the windows.A rocky hiking trail winds uphill through dense green shrubs under a bright sunlit sky.

A rocky hilltop with a large tree offers a panoramic view of a cityscape and distant mountains under a clear blue sky.
