When people visit, I try to steer them towards things that are unique to this location. I took my new associate to Timbuk2. Made in SF messenger bags. They are actually very well made. You also pay the cost for them to manufacture in The USA. Which means up to ten times what a bag would...
An atmospheric river is upon us. That means it's raining hard. She did not pack any outdoors clothing. And we had to get a motorcycle jacket for the ride to Las Vegas.
"I figured going to California, I would just buy a bikini when I got here. I had no idea that you had Winter here."
Not...
It has been raining. I ran around town in a CityVan. Nobody wants to be in a "minivan" anymore. That's for drunk soccer moms who are cheating on their husbands. A European style van, now sold in The USA, which commercial users have quickly adapted to. Just like white pickup trucks, white...

While on assignment on The East Coast, I rode. I bought a used bike, and figured I would ride it until I got sent home. Minimal mods, minimal maintenance, sell it back to the dealership in less than a year.
Once you start riding around on a bike, and parking your bike in bike parking spots...
A half dozen blouses, a simple, yet elegant black dress, and a 3 piece suit. Tailored jacket, with matching skirt and pants. 1 pair of simple heels with red soles. She traveled light. All of it fit into a carry-on.
All of it from a very expensive tailor. One of the best in the world...
Value is perception. Are you willing to pay whatever the asking price? The actual worth of any leather jacket? Leather. Craftsmanship.
Different leathers have a different price point. Some hides cost less. Surely, pigskin cost less than horsehide. Steer is readily available because so...
