As I walk around near our home in La Jolla, I'm impressed by all the scents. I enjoy the garlic aroma from the pizza oven at Piatti, so far our favorite nearby restaurant. The little restaurant row also produces smells from Mexican tortillas and salsas, french fries, coffee, and hamburgers.Flower aromas are everywhere. Eucalyptus oil vaporizes from the trees that are planted singly and in wooded spaces. In salt marshes, sage and many other dune plants combine with tidal mud in a special aroma. Kelp, fish, and bird smells dominate the beaches. Today the wind was strong, and plumes of spray were blowing off the waves, and the wind smell was fresh and salty.
