santa barbara, california: it's hot here, about 80 degrees days. i'm walking around in tee shirts. went for a hike up in the santa barbara hills yesteday afternoon. visited an abandoned hot springs hotel whose foundation is the last remnant along with a private property sign that no one respects. the sulpherous spring water is piped away somewhere but locals who like to use the waters have inserted various diverting devices into the piping to fill small rock walled pools. i was so hot after climbing up to the spings that i didn't feel like taking a dip. the water is 116 degrees.
christmas is over, at least the present opening part. my niece and nephew ripped through their presents in about half an hour. i wondered if i ate through presents as fast when i was a child? last night went to a christmas celebration at the local vedanta temple. i enjoyed the reading of the christmas story in a buddhist temple.
tomorrow i head back to los angeles.
