Windblown....

Yesterday I was able to meet up with Kashew as planned. We decided to go down to the shore and it was just beautiful!! The wind was a bit chilly, as you can tell, and soon the fog started coming in, but it was still beautiful. I love the shore... and the desert... and the mountains... and ........

Janet is still suffering from her foot injury so we couldn't walk much. So we spent most of our time at a restaurant and later at Starbucks and did LOTS of girl talk!

These cliffs are slowly but surely disappearing into the ocean. I love the wildness of the waves crashing against the rocks...


My brother, Carl, and his wife, Alice, invited me out to dinner tonight. It's hard to believe I've been here a week already and less then one week to go.

I'm slowly finding my way through this blog site. It'll still never compare to JS, but it's better then nothing. To make it easier for everyone to find people, if you're in my Fun Forum, just put the new blog address in your profile, preferably in the signiture. You can sort that list alphabetically to make it easier to find people. Oh, the signiture doesn't seem to show up unless you are signed in, that means only signed in members see it!!

I just got back from shopping for all sorts of goodies for my grandkids. I might get overweight just with their stuff! lol

  1. Wow, I love the pics and it really does look windy!

  2. I've never met you in person, but you appear to be on the petite side, so if you do go over the checked luggage weight limit, you might just suggest that you make up for it by weighing less than most passengers. I did this in Paris once and it worked!

  5. firt the bay with Fitzgerald, then the desert with John, then the ocean again with Kashew... this place is so diverse and offers so much, and it's always nice to visit those spots with friends. And I need this distraction, too.

    Kitten, yes, I'm "petite", about 5'2". My suitcase wasn't even half full when I flew over, so I think I'll manage. lol

    I'm glad you all enjoyed the pictures. I'm not taking as many pictures as I used to.

  8. Sounds/Looks like you're having a great time. The 'bridges' formed by the rocks in the water remind me of the bridge in Aruba...before it collapsed into the ocean. Beautiful pix. Hugs.

  9. I actually love blogspot. Quick uploads . . . and the opportunity to stay connected to bloggers no matter what server they utilize. Learning any kind of new technology always takes time to get used to. I'm sure you'll fit in here real quick-like (glad your site looks so nice already). :D

  10. Nice shots, Dorrie! The solitary shots of John and Kashew are especially good.

  11. California always was scenic. I am going thru some of the hundreds of slides I took when I lived there of Rt 1, Big Sur, 17 Mile Drive, Salinas, Yosemite, Sequoia, Carmel and Monterey. Some gorgeous shots. If JS comes back I'll try to post some. I have had little luck doing so here. fin
