Our neighbour’s garden is not alight, but the Fire Sticks succulent (Euphorbia tirucalli) sure is aptly named.

This week’s Buildings assignment was to sketch a fancy local building that we could sit directly in front of. I was on my way to the historic Adamson House when I realised that the new Santa Monica College satellite (opened earlier this year) fit the bill.
It seems there was not really a need for this campus, but the money was available, so they built it anyway. The parking lot is always empty. Are there any students inside? In the meantime, the park opposite is populated by people experiencing homelessness. Were resources allocated rationally?
