I’m in Auburn, California, population 14,000, and I randomly spotted a poster for a Bill Frisell concert here tonight. I haven't seen Frisell live since 1988 (Naked City @ Ravinia, outside Chicago), so apparently it‘s an every-38-years thing for me

Oh, yes. Scenes with extensive sand flats at low tide, karst terrane & a cave with speleothems, steep vertical cliffs composed of bedded limestone, & (one of my favorites) a black-sand beach with dunes & a glacier & lava flow meeting in the background. You'll love it. 🧪🪨⚒️📽️
