Welcome to Notes on SaMo by me, Lillian Kalish. A sometimes reporter, sometimes poet, I’m a writer currently stuck at home with my parents, writing from the corner window. Going forward, I hope to make this a little collage of things I see and remember around Santa Monica, a smaller city in Los Angeles where I grew up. I’ve always been fascinated by this place, a city that sits on Gabrielino Tongva land, that was colonized by the Spanish and named after the weeping Saint Monica. In more modern times, it was a place for wealthy retirees and ex-military personnel to relax and rehabilitate.
