It was lovely to meet you, Ellie! Another fabulous DBer - we're an amazing bunch, aren't we?
Next time I'm in So.Cal. I will definitely stop through. I wish I'd known about DBing this past March - S. and I were out for a few weeks visiting his sister in the San Bernadino Valley, camping in the Mojave, and in San Diego for a day visiting the Salk Institute (for the architecture).
