I just returned from an eight-day trip to southern California. The purpose was to visit my youngest daughter and several dear friends. The weather was excellent, and although I knew about the June gloom, I discovered there’s also the May gray. The sun heats the high desert east of the Los Angeles basin causing air to rise. This movement pulls moist marine air eastward. This marine layer blocks the morning sun.
It had been a few years since I’d been to this part of our great nation. I traveled alone, giving my wife a break from me being around the house here 24/7/365. She calls these adventures little-man self-discovery trips.
