Inside the 1930 house’s living room, dawn breaks over Laurel Canyon through vintage chicken-wire glass windows. True to form, the opaque variant of this glass reflected shadows through Sam Spade’s office door in The Maltese Falcon. “Shoo her in, Effie…”

Wake up. See fire thru bedroom window. House 2-doors down engulfed. Adrenaline. 1/2 to 300x awake in 1 sec. Grab the go bag. Dread a downhill escape on melting tires under flying embers. But then an LAFD copter at 75 ft swoops in and water drops away the inferno. Thankful today.

Our cottage sits at 640 feet altitude. And yet, 64 stories over sea level, we’re only 3/4 up the canyon. Makes for air you want to breathe slow, and a good sundial, too. When the Slipperman’s house across the way falls into shadow, you know it’s time for wine.

Our Laurel Canyon cottage, halfway up an eastern hillside (this view is NE), acts as an aerie. Morning cool brings echoes of goats from the canyon floor, while afternoon warmth brings the distinctive drone of insatiable hummingbirds on nectar crawls. [LA❤️, day 3/180]

#PaceLaurelCanyon is a sublime restaurant down the street from our hillside aerie. Here, crayons on tables are used not only to scrawl on paper tablecloths, but also on the glass bricks that diffuse the glare of boulevard headlights from outdoor diners. [LA❤️, day 1/180]
