Auburn HeightsEden, California in the 60s   A town born in the bosom of a Father’s heart, rising not by just soil and stone, but from desire itself. The man turns the crank, and the residents on Nightingale Court move and toil. Sylvie and Joe smoke pot, Rick and Holly go to church, Jim and Judy are swingers, and Traci just forced the split between HerJoe and Sarah. Jerry and Chrissy were the first residents in Auburn Heights; they occupy the bird’s-eye spot at the end of the cul-de-sac. Too much? There’s more. Witness the day that Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer commemorate Our Golf Club of Eden and absorb all the inner-workings of a PGA course. And then there’s another couple Dan and Carol; they are making their way home from a drug-induced weekend in Laurel Canyon, they mingle with Jack Nicholson, Neil Young, astronauts from NASA, The Brotherhood of Eternal Love, and Stevie! There’s fashion and cigarettes, cocaine and LSD, miniskirts, peace signs, and Lovebugs! Too much to take in? Breathe, Daddy-O, just breathe, then take a look out of your front door ... you’ll make the connections with your neighbors just the same!Together they form the prying eyes of Auburn Heights and their protective nature of the rich who reside up the hill in the Estates section: The McDonnells, the Ballesteros, the Ackermans, and the Donloffs. Then Interject Bendodanté and his fireflies, that accelerate the growth of his Project in Eden ... and it weaves a fantastical tale of adventure. My telling of a father’s wish ... a father’s desire to build Auburn Heights.Welcome to my fictitious telling of Auburn Heights, where the line between illusion and reality is razor-thin.Lenny Tocco © 2025
