The View


        Her parents' house sits on a lot at the fork of two, small canyons
in the South Carmel Hills.  The side yard faces south and has a broad view
of the west end of the Carmel Valley.  There are two, long, low mountains
(the northern end of the Santa Lucias) sitting on an east-west axis on the
far side of the valley with pockets of redwood and Monterey pine growing on
the ridges.  The Fish Ranch sits on a west knoll overlooking a long, golden
brown meadow; the barn reflects a dull, geometric green at sunset while the
cows are black spots in the meadow.
