Another new friend…

I met a new buddy the other day when I drove up to drop some stuff off at my wife’s Aunt and Uncle’s house. She was so sweet. She came trotting over as soon as I started making that ‘chck…chck…chck’ … Continue reading

And here they are… the last pictures of the day before the last day of my epic adventure… because… you know… I am doing the whole thing backwards…

I had a great time hanging out with my little cousin, Clark, in Santa Cruz. Just so you know, you need to get down on the floor to really have fun with little kids. It also makes it easier to … Continue reading

Why yes, I did have a great time hanging out with my new baby cousin, thank you for asking… oh, and I once again risked death and/or dismemberment to get you pictures of a big sea mammal…

As I said, we had a lovely bite to eat in a place overlooking the Santa Cruz harbor. My cousin Mallorie, Clark’s mom, did not offer to clean me up, even though I am at least as messy an eater … Continue reading

And who doesn’t like big sea mammals???

It is important to remember when driving on California’s Highway 1 that not all the good views face West towards the Pacific Ocean… oh… and my power is being cut off for the next ten hours, so don’t panic if I’m not around…
