After I arrived at the airport I met my hostess in a rented car and we drove back to her home in San Jose. She and her partner lived in a rather run-down part of town but it was the only place they could afford. The intense brilliance of the California sun caused me to walk around the neighborhood and I drew this picture of someone's front yard, which was full of tacky Italian garden sculptures and real green plants.
