As Good as it Gets

California dreaming . . .


. . . on such a winter's day.


Bur-r-r-r-r-r-r-r


You don't live in California, you Experience California.


At least, that's what the travel and tourism boards tell you.


I like to compare California to a rose, which when in bloom, is magnificent.


But when the bloom fades, you're left with the thorns and a few wilted leaves.


Experience has taught me that no place is perfect.


But, on one sunny day in January . . .


California . . .


came . . .


close!


The top photo and the last five, were taken at Dog Beach in Del Mar on 1/18/10, where Shane and Moose enjoyed a game of fetch, in spite of the frigid water. The rose, we encountered on a walk.

The photo of Brooke and Conor was taken at Del Mar Beach on Camp Pendleton last summer. Conor was only a month old.

The two photos of the fire damage were taken 10/25/08

  2. Like how you laid this out. That link goes to a page if you cut and paste, but the page doesn't work. Or at least not for me.
