The principal
function of all
County Fairs was
to exhibit California's
agricultural riches.
Del Mar's version
had some of the
finest displays
of produce anywhere
to be seen. Now
we jostle down
endless aisles
of kitchen gadgets,
carpet cleaners,
and hot tubs --
a clear admission
that it is difficult
to make fair exhibits
to glorify the
freeways, shopping
centers and housing
tracts that have
ruined our former
earthly paradise.
Is that what they
call progress?

THE
GYM IN DEL
MAR seems
almost zen-like,
without the
pulsing noise
that are
often
found in
other gyms.
Is this intentional? Absolutely!
We took
a step back
to see what
we could
do to give
The Gym
the look
and feel
we wanted,
i.e., that
of a small
community
gym.

My
eye caught
two well-dressed
men walking
north near
Carlos and
Annie’s,
across the
street from
me. They
were dressed
in suits
- strange
- more New
York than
California.
But the
fact that
one of them
was using
a walkie-talkie
was stranger
still. |
