In Search of Utopia




Things around here will be a bit quiet as Dontknockitecture and myself will be blindly and ambitiously driving across the country en route to California.  We will triumphantly return soon with a (hopefully) impressive series of photos and stories regarding today's status of roadside architecture and all things "mockitecture" ...


All the leaves are brown
(All the leaves are brown)
And the sky is gray.
(And the sky is gray).
I've been for a walk
(I've been for a walk)
On a winter's day.
(On a winter's day).

I'd be safe and warm
(I'd be safe and warm)
if I was in L.A.
(If I was in L.A.)
California dreamin'
(California dreamin') on such a winter's day.
