OF '87 first landed in Los Angeles was
struck with the extent and beauty OF
the mountains, and my first ride was to

wrote see Naples and de- could stand
with us and look from the snow-clad
sentinel that guards the eastern pass to
the distant isle that frames the bay of
Avalon, his line today would run: See
Pasadena from Echo mountain or the
summit OF Mount Lowe and pray the
gods to give you life eternal there.'"
