Bowers Museum in Santa Ana, CA

You’r going to end up like those two guys in Fargo, surrounded by snow and ice, and one says to the other: “They say it’s gonna be a cold one tomorrow.”

Nice pic. Good memories. I worked at the old IBM building, across the street from the Marina Towers.

Oh… I get it now. Thanks for clarifying.

My parents’ house in SoCal originally had cedar shake shingles. They were replaced 35 years ago. I could understand an insurer wanting cedar shake replaced. Now composite fiberglass, asphalt shingles don’t seem like they’re all that combustible regardless of age. However I’m not an expert.

Just curious, what did the insurer want the roof replaced with?

Discovered SciFi in the early 70s. For me the defining book for cyberpunk is Neuromancer. YMMV

I grew up on Asimov, Heinlein, Herbert, Niven, Pournelle, Pohl, and so many more.

I worked in River North area for 20+ years and you perfectly captured one of my favorite spots.
