There was a brief pause in the rain this morning. This was the View

Todays View

It's may be raining but the view is great! This is a blood orange off of our very own tree. It is soooo sweet and juicy. Yum.

Winter Getaway

Last August when I was in Peru Ken bought tickets to a Keb Mo Concert at the Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach. This weekend the concert was finally here. The concert was fantastic. Keb can really sing and he didn't let us down.

The plan had been to Kayak Saturday morning but the weather forecast before we left home didn't look good so the Kayak stayed home.

Instead we decided to check out Torry Pines State Park in LaJolla. Of course the day actually was warm and beautiful. This is the view from the beginning of the hike. We actually hiked out to the rock in the picture to start out with.

Here is my hiking companion and pack mule.
There were many areas where the plants were being rehabilitated. Rehabilitated from what I do not know, it all looked good to me.
The view as we hiked further out. (looking north)

The view the other direction. (looking south)
At the end of the trail. The Pacific Ocean.

Blast From The Past

Ken got a 35mm Digital Converter for Christmas. Yesterday I found the negatives from our wedding. (I am not going to talk about the HUGE manilla envelope full of negatives that I threw away several years ago because I would surely never need them again.) On facebook people are using retro pictures of themselves at their profile picture this week. Well if you want retro check these out.

This picture isn't our best. We both look like we are laughing. I wonder what was so funny. It was probably my hat.

Here is my retro family. Not too bad except for a few hair challenges.
My best friend Lynda and my brother Troy. Troy is smiling like this because he is thinking about how he just got home from Uruguay, his stomach is going to start feeling better, and his best friend just married his sister. What's not to smile about!
Jill looking good.
Sorry, Stephanie.... lame photographer only took this picture of you. At least he took one. He managed not to take any of Brandon.
Bob and Lynn win the totally retro award. I would be mad if I were Lynn because Bob is showing her up in the hair department here.
Retro cake. Please note arrows pointing to retro nuts and mints. We sure knew how to do refreshments back in the 80's. I think we should go back to weddings like this. Think of all the money we would save.
Retro car: Plymouth Horizon. It was a beauty. What you can't see is the paper cuttings that fill the inside of the car up clear to where the windows start.
