Heading South

Heading for Southern California tomorrow morning for a short two week break. Will be flying to San Diego, then driving up the coast to Laguna Beach (just south of LA), San Simeon (where Hearst Castle is located) and Solvang (Santa Barbara wine country - where they filmed "Sideways"). Turned rainy & colder here this past week after some really pretty spring days so it will be nice to see the sun again.

The trip is basically a big meander to get our minds off all the details involved in closing Mom's estate and cleaning out her mobile home.

We hope to see Tom and Pat Reeve while we're in San Diego - an old company mate from the Naval Academy who we last saw in November at the 40th reunion in Annapolis. Looking forward to that. Also looking forward to some mindless fun at Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm, and maybe some of the other SoCal attractions, and to reconnect with more old friends in the LA area. Will try to remember the camera and to post some photos along the way.
