Silicon Sunset



Commuting on Caltrain from San Francisco to Silicon Valley for the last two months has been oddly soothing. In the early morning, the anachronistic, old-fashioned trains rock you back and forth into a dream state between sleep and wakefulness while offering views of the rain-soaked landscape.



At the end of the workday, walking along small suburban sidewalks to the San Carlos train station...



...and crossing an overpass over the nightmarishly congested Highway 101...



...I thank my teenage self for opting out of driving and car culture while growing up in Southern California.
