Bandhigga Margaret Howell's Spring ee maanta, naqshadeeyuhu wuxuu doortay laba nooc oo heeso ah "Hotel California" ee heesaheeda dhawaaqa-marka hore, oo loo sameeyay sida daboolka, iyo dhamaadka, heesta asalka ah ee lagu heeso Eagles. Iyada oo ururinta fududaynta, folksy, iyo si kastaba ha ahaatee xeebaha -eeg feerka gaaban ee tolan, shaati doon-dhuuban oo ballaadhan, iyo maro-maalin dhar-xidhan - mid ayaa laga yaabaa inuu u malaynayo Howell inuu ku socdo-galbeed, laga yaabo inuu dib u soo celiyo laadkii Gobolka Dahabka. Laakiin naqshadeeyaha sida caadiga ah moodada hooyada, way dafirtay: "Kaliya waxaanu dooranay muusig aan jecelnahay," ayay tidhi, iyada oo u muuqata mid ku faraxsan in weriyahani uu weydiin doono su'aashan oo kale.
Si kastaba ha ahaatee, tani waxay ahayd Howell si gaar ah u deggan. "Waa maxay tallaabo yar oo horay loo qaaday halkan waa isticmaalka maro fudud," ayay tidhi, sida dharka-suufka ah ee taangiyada dushooda, Gore-Tex-ka khafiifsan ee Gore-Tex ee godadka (kuwaas oo ahaa kuwo aad u fiican), iyo xitaa dunta jilicsan ee dharka kalluumaysatada, kuwaas oo la yimid qoor labajibbaaran iyo khardal ama palette badeed. In kasta oo la isticmaalay xadhko qaro weyn, boodboodayaashu waxay u muuqdeen dadaalla'aan iyo xeeb. Surwaal-boot-goysneed, oo katiinado kor loo qaaday, ayaa sii fogeeyay ururadii badda--waxaa ku dhawaaday in la arko iyaga oo xidhan, oo taagan xeebta-goobka, subaxnimadii Big Sur ceeryaamo ah. Bandhigga ugu fiican? Badhanka linenka ah oo hoos u yaal, dhoobo midab leh, oo leh muraayadaha daaqadaha. Ku tuur oo iska hubi Hotel California.
