Visit Lotusland, a 37-acre botanic garden or eucalyptus groves in Goleta where Monarch butterflies migrate for the winter. More endearing, if scarcely less persuasive, is the deflationary comparison of the Kennedys and Texas governor John Connolly and his wife riding through Dallas in the Lincoln Continental X-100 to the Beverly Hillbillies making their jalopy entry into Southern California's Lotusland. They come seeking the enchantment of Lotusland, but then they step through the glass doors of baggage claim at LAX and register this as their first open-air impression of the place: a shadowy canopy of concrete, a frenetic demolition derby of shuttle vehicles, a plume of diesel exhaust, the outraged blast of a horn, and across the way, straining for a few stray rays of sunshine, some very forlorn-looking palm trees. |
