Tips for O.B. travelers to Elle Aye, a new spelling I invented for Los Angeles:
First and most important, if you arrive on the West Coast without having left Martha’s Vineyard for one embarrassingly long year (not counting a quick Island Queen jaunt to the Christmas Tree Shop), then it’s easier, and your adjustment exceedingly less awkward, if you boldly and unflinchingly admit to yourself, and anyone who is remotely interested, that you’re a rube, plain and simple.
