I was scanning some slides for my
friend Linda Thomas -- the usual vacation,
birthday, wedding stuff -- when one slide stopped
me in my tracks. "Oh," she said, "I got that
from a friend. He was diving outside the bay
and took it." Wow! It's a completely
different prospective, with Point Loma looking a
lot like the Rock of Gibraltar. Downtown is
a lot smaller, and Cowles Mountain still has the
fading memory of an "S" placed there by students
from San Diego State.
