Friday afternoon we sat on a sandy knoll among scattered two foot high tufts of sea coast grass. For the 4th day in a row the sky was a beautiful blue, dotted with dollops of fluffy cloud meringue. The angle and brightness of the sun gave the appearance of diamonds sparkling from here as far [...]
Living in a 34 foot motor home has been an enlightening experience. There are just two of us and a little white dog but the only time we aren’t in full sight of the other person is when we are in the little bathroom with the door shut. Yeah … any sound from the bathroom [...]
There is a drive down to the beach that has road base until you are fairly close. Those who have 4 wheel drive vehicles … or those who are very daring drive their cars closer. Most of them get a big run on it and go lickity split through the deep sand to where the [...]
This is looking down the street of the little town we’re in, Ocean Park. We’re staying at Ocean Park RV Resort. It has a heated pool, spa, recreation building, full hookups,Internet and TV. And it’s reasonably priced! It’s secluded and quiet and we love it. We ran into Santa [...]

This week we’ve been looking for learning opportunities in life … Here are a couple of them: Many people drive their cars along the beach but they follow the sand that has been hardened by the water … Every now and then we see this. They are stuck. They ignored the warning signs and took [...]
It’s one of those nights. I’m tired but can’t sleep. That’s because I have some old friends who have dropped in to spend the night: Itchy, Grouchy, Jumpy and Heartburn. They are the kind of friends who drop by unexpected and can’t take a hint when it’s time to leave. You’d think they would, though, [...]
This post is for Sandi … the sweet lady who gave me this little Lady when she heard how I’d lost Ozzy. She looks like a wooly little lamb with the moist ocean air here. I don’t even try to straighten her hair. Lady and I were sitting in the warm car watching the [...]
Lynn and I went bowling today. He bowled 129 and I bowled 111, which for me is probably the highest score of my life. It reminded me of our second official “date”. We grew up together in the small town of Draper and our best friends were siblings so we spent time together all our [...]
