They were ahead of their time, they knew the government would turn on the people.

I think that house became a college of some kind.

There was a purple room and a red room, I think one was covered in satin.

I was always fascinated by what they did there, a real mystery.

Within a block of my house was that religious institute, across the street was a large Mormon church, across from that a large estate monastery fir the Poor Claire’s, the large Mission Santa Barbara a block from that, also a Presbyterian, Christian Science, a Unitarian, a Baptist, a Saint Germain center, and a Congregational church all within a few blocks.

To say I grew up confused about religion was an understatement.
