Morphing

I think we have been spending too much time at the beach and maybe eating too much seafood. The attached photo might tell you what I'm talking about. It was taken by friends from Oregon. Wanda and I seem to become full-feathered creatures.

I think we really need to get home fast!

Then and Now

Ran across a couple of pics. One from 1976 in the Moses Lake Control Center and the other from 2007 in the Spokane Control Center. Wow. Forgot I had black hair once.

Kayaking Morro Bay

Finally. We kayaked in Morro Bay. Had to wait for a day with high tide, no wind, pleasant conditions. It all came together today and Wanda led the expedition. Being campground hosts, we don't have to pay anything to take out a kayak.

We were out for only about 45 minutes but next time it will be longer.

We have 2 more months before we head home. Looking forward to that for sure.

Golf/sun/ SCE

Amazing day today. We played golf at the Morro Bay golf course. Beautiful day, about 70 degrees and we paired up with a couple vacationing in the area . After the 3rd hole I began talking to Bob and found out he worked for the Southern California Edison company (SCE), the company I worked for from 1962 t0 1971. Small world. They were a fun couple to play golf with. We had dinner at the Bayside Cafe right on Morro Bay. Saw a beautiful sunset to end a wonderful day.

Oceano Dunes

Went down to Oceano Dunes today where Chris and Kristy and the kids are camping on the sand with their wild looking dune buggy type vehicles. People can just pull their RVs down on the sand anywhere they like and ride the sand dunes up and down the beach. Cool and windy today.

Been Awhile

Thought I'd better make an entry before I forgot how to do it. The weather is so boring here. 75 for a high, 45 for a low, every stinking day. LOL... Supposed to get some rain this weekend and all the weathermen talk about is about how the cold is coming. 60 for a high, 45 for a low. I think Wanda and I can handle it.
We are having one of our fellow hosts over tonight for barbequed pork ribs. Wanda has been in the kitchen all day working on potato salad and a peach cobbler.Yum. I can't wait.
We have 3 months to go and are looking forward to getting home, as long as all the snow is melted, that is.

Pismo Beach Butterflies

Traveled down the coast to Pismo Beach today, about 12 miles, to see the Monarch butterfly grove. Thousands of them migrate from as far north as Canada to this same grove every year. It is really fascinating. There are about 15 to 20 thousand of them hanging in clusters off of the limbs and leaves of the eucalyptus trees.

The picture I attached doesn't do them credit. Make sure you click on the picture to enlarge it. They look like big, bushy clusters of leaves.
