California Cold


I was staring at a squirrel in my backyard when it occurred to me that certain people in this world look at a squirrel and think about dinner. 
It’s been a couple of days and I’m not so sure about the song. I like the chords but it reminds me of the Bruce Springsteen tribute songs to Pete Seeger. I like both Bruce and Pete but I’m not sure I want to sound like them. I played the song for a lady friend. She seemed to like it but, unless I can somehow make it my own it will find a way to disappear.
            It’s been California cold of late. When it gets below fifty degrees at night, well, that’s cause for concern. I know it sounds funny but you get use to the moderate temperatures. I’ve heard people from Toronto complain about the cold. I know, it doesn’t make any sense, but that’s California cold for you.
