   The San Fernando Valley, Northridge.   
   Dad built a house near what was to be CSUN,   
   called Valley State College at the time. Dirt roads,   
   horses, farms, groves and orchards were plentiful.   
      
   Simi Valley wasn't settled much in the 50s. The boom   
   had yet to begin. Nuclear war loomed. Drop-drills   
   were conducted frequently. The end seemed   
   as if it might be at any moment except   
   life kept on keeping on for me.   
      
   When people across the ages are aware of destruction,   
   of all the bad that is and fear, I can relate to that.   
   Creation is another face that presents its elf.   
      
   - given a mind sigh ... Cheers!
