San Diego Thursday and part of Friday:

Thursday: On the way to lunch - Something for CUMC to aspire to........or not ;)Lunch at the:On the roof.....With a view of the Pacific Ocean.......We had fish tacos and were thy ever yummy.....

Then we, my sister and I, went for a walk on the boardwalk, ooops, make that the concrete:
With a view of the ocean:
A trip to Mesa College, where my sister works!!
Some San Diego traffic:and a view of the Southern California drought..........

And here is where we ate breakfast on Friday with my sister and her son and family from Oregon...... This is La Jolla....
Here we are walking around a park below the restaurant and above the ocean... The water below is called the divers pool. It is a natural pool where the waters are calm and divers and snorkelers and surf kiakers go to view the marine life..... The couple in one of the pictures is my sisters grand son and his girl friend....

Later this evening my sisters family will meet, after dinner, for desert (which starts with "d" and not "c" in case you are worried) and then the adults will head out in search of an adult beverage.... More postings of this excellent adventure will follow.... Keep your head up and your powder dry.... I didn't make that up and it is not pertinent to this blog, but I wanted to say it. Cheers, john

Here I am from San Diego California....My flight was wonderful....slight delay at the TRI, but made the connection and had smooth sailing, (so to speak) all the way here!!! Sandy is at home entertaining her sister who had already planned her yearly visit before the party for my sister was planned....

Was discussing beers with one of my nephews..... likes Fat Tire and I told him about 1556... now he is looking for it... we are all going in search of it on Friday evening!!!! More later...

The weather here is outstanding... They are transiting to fall... toward the end of October they will enter their hot season.... While the seasons are not as noticeable here as they are in East Tennessee, the locals can really tell the difference!!! Proving once more that where you are is where you are and you should get used to it!!!

I will post pics later, when I take some, and keep you well informed... Although my sister and the surrounding area does not have wireless, she has DSL and it is easy to plug-and-play!!!!!

Remember, take good care of yourself and try not to be the next pin cushion!!!! love, john
