Similar to my first experience of LA. Back in spring of 93 I was staying with a friend who was studying at Caltech. Their house was near the campus in Pasadena. I'd been there for a week when I walked outside one morning and saw a whole mountain range had appeared seemingly overnight at the end of the street! It was the San Gabriels and they had been utterly invisible for the week prior to a wind coming thru and blowing all that crud away. It was staggering. A whole 10000 foot mountain range just a few miles away that was invisible for a week. And then voila! seemed like you could reach out and touch them.
