just got back from california where husband and i celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary when my cousin invited us out to his house in san clemente for a week. what a wonderful time. beautiful weather mid 70's my favorite. busy everyday and never saw one cloud. my favorite time was dolphin- whale watch. i didn't see any whales but we were sailing with a pod of over 100 common dolphins and pacific white sided dolphins (didn;t know there was such a thing) what a treat.. cousin is the best tour guide chaffeuer.. ever.when we went to seaworld on, our own, we almost went to mexico. i didn;t want to go to mexico.we stopped when we saw the sign tijuana 3 miles. that was close enough. too close..it;s been so hot here that my son who works construction had the job site shut down 2 days because of heat. oldest son is in middle of nasty divorce. she was served with papers which he didn;t want to do but when she stayed overnight at friends,man,he didn;t have much choice.glad he has a good lawyer and i can stay out of it.;at least as much as a mom can. husband gone for two days to try and find septic tank or whatever is there at camp.wish him luck as he tackles this in the 90 degree temps. vacation time over..

so glad to get away esp. since i had to put my dog sable down the week before trip. i was so afraid it would happen when we were gone.at 13 she was my best bud. past year we were at vets min. 6 times and couldn't help her as she lost more than 30 lbs. in the year from 100 to 70 lbs.. liver and kidney problems with suspision of cancer 2 dogs in as many years. i'm done .2 sons have 2 dogs, other has 1 if i need my dog fix. .cousin has a mini aussie, another shelter dog.i really needed that vacation, and after a week home i think i need another.i have a lot of catching up to do here.unfortunately if i start a computer game, i'm gone for hours.hope you've been well and surviving this heat.blessings lynn

How nice to get away for a little while and really enjoy yourself! I just bet both of you put your feet in the pacific ocean in that city!

 

Lynn, I hope I never, never have to put our little dog down, my granddaughter would never be the same child the way she loves that little puppy who was 6 months old yesterday! She earned the dog with honor roll grades and we got her at two weeks old! She has adopted me as her care giver, Popper scooper and baby sitter since my grand has been on vacation down in Georgia!

 

I got her going outside now but still use the pad to TT sometimes! It's hot, hot here and she drinks plenty cool water all day long to stay cool with all that long hair of a shihtu tzu!

Lyn, so good to hear you got away from your mundane life for a while. Vacation time is the best! Congratulations on your 40th anniversary - good some people are constant and true to each other. For Ray and I it will be 44 years end of July.

 

I just had a mid-winter break down with my daughter and family, just as cold as here but the company was good and it was great to catch up with our two grandchildren there.

 

Keep on getting out as much as you can, the variety of life and the interest it creates in us who are curious by nature is priceless.

 

Sue.
