Hillsides are suddenly verdant, two weeks after the rain on December 28th. More rain please...

Where's the green down there?

Where we ride...

One of the points of interest on the Palos Verdes Scenic + Oddballs route and the "Lite" version, is the view from Punta Place in PVE.

Close by the view point is the mansion at 1804 Via Visalia, owned by Masafumi Miyamoto, developer of Nintendo and PlayStation games. Purchased in 1996 for $7.9 million, the house was on the market in 2019 for $17 million, it didn't sell. Overpriced perhaps? Miyamoto reportedly also owns the park like area in front of the house to ensure his ocean view cannot be blocked!

How much staff does it take to keep cobwebs at bay?
