This motel is a couple of blocks off Sepulvada Blvd. an eight lane street with seemingly no speed limit. I walked up there this morning as the sun was coming up with idea of finding a cheap place to have breakfast. I went south a little way with no luck then turned around and went the other way.

Like a thirsty man in the desert who sees an oasis, I saw an IHop in the distance. Juanita, cheerfully served me the three egg and three pancake special (includes hash browns). I was saved.

Today is orientation day. I wish it was get out on the highway day but I don't make the schedule. We have a meeting at 2:00. Since I am usually disoriented maybe it will help.
