Goodbye, Los Angeles!
Well there you have it. A twenty-five year era complete. I arrived in Los Angeles in a red car pulling a trailer, in May 2000. And I’m leaving Los Angeles in a red car pulling a trailer, in May 2025. How poetic.
My friend and neighbor Chris filmed me driving off. My across-the-street neighbor Martha happened to be outside and called out goodbye as I passed. And for some reason, THAT’s when the tears came. What a wonderful road it’s been, but all signs were leading me to go out and explore. I’m not sure exactly where I’m headed, but I’m feeling the need to be closer to birth family, which means eastbound. My chosen west coast fam has been amazing, and I’ll miss everyone but also this isn’t the end, it’s just goodbye for now, and catch you on the flip!
Goodbye, Los Angeles!
