A Fourth to Remember

Bunting in Los Angeles?

I spent the Fourth in the midst of what I can honestly call a village in Los Angeles. My husband and I were fortunate enough to merit an invite to celebrate the Fourth with good friends in their Pacific Palisades home. It was here that I was once again reminded why I love this city so much.

Not being from LA originally, it has been increasingly fascinating to see the sense of togetherness fostered and held dear between such an incredibly huge number of people.

Los Angeles is not just a city, but a patchwork of neighboring villages whose people and borders stick closely together.
