a random day

More peaceful scenes from So Cal

Suddenly a duck fight broke out!
A free-for-all for mallards.
Got any grapes?

Way too big clothes...


Having your own kitchenette is great!

No bun - so it's marginally ok...right?

My latest crush....Luna, they call her.
Puppy love, I guess...

Tastes like grape Kool-Aid

Didn't even finish it...

A *new* old favorite


My personal favorite

All kinds of treats here - Energy Shot Heaven.
Corner stores have full displays of every kind of drink!


Monster w/protein
In and Out /no bun...
Went to Trader Joe's today!
Way cool store.
4 or 5 bites of pulled beef BBQ
Too busy to eat, I guess.
Water, coffee w/hot chocolate
Water, water, water...
Thanks for reading -
wish you were here!

This just in - 
The reason I couldn't sleep last night was an Earthquake!
No damage here - we're just south and east of LA!

  4. OMG
    I stopped a total stranger in the parking lot
    and asked if I could pet the pup....
    People here are SO nice -
    Even the traffic is nicer than the drivers in Dallas.
    I just love every minute of my time here.
    Why vacation anywhere else? It's just what I needed!

  17. I thought of you at 4:04am when the earthquake woke me up! I hate those things but fortunately it was a small one and now you can say you've experienced one :-)

    In and Out can be addictive. Do you know all the ordering lingo??? Order yours "Protein Style" and they'll wrap it in lettuce instead of a bun.
    Here's more lingo-- http://www.ehow.com/how_2153273_order-in-n-out-burger.html

    Your vacations posts are making me HAPPY!!! I'm so glad you're having FUN!

  18. Oooo! I experienced my first earthquake several years ago in Portland. Made me feel motion sick for awhile. It felt weird.

    I just got back from Trader Joes. I'm waiting to see if I'm allergic to kumquats or not. I ate, too. Am I imagining my face is starting to feel itchy, or is it really? We shall see.

  22. Did you feel the earth move? When I lived in SoCal, we felt them every now and then. Strange feeling. What was more strange was watching a glass start sliding across the table :0

    "Why vacation anywhere else?" Exactly! Keep havin' fun!
