While visiting Los Olivos yesterday afternoon I figured a quick visit to the gates of what was once called Neverland (and is now called Sycamore Valley Ranch) might be interesting. I read not long ago that Michael Jackson‘s former estate had been sold, but for some reason I can’t find the latest link. Jackson abandoned the place in June 2005 in the wake of his acquittal on pedophile molestation and conspiracy. The love notes scrawled on the Spanish-styled wall outside the main gate reminded me of the sentiments written on the grave of Oscar Wilde in Pere Lachaise. The green hills and pastures as you approach the estate are almost blinding, like the greens of southern Ireland.
