Back from vacation,was an experience but good to be home,home..got to see my cousin who I had not seen in a few years and stay at her house a few nights,she lives in more rural area with goats and chickens behind her house,Cali was beautiful got to walk on a few trails and around a mall-ish area with a lot of shops,got new reading material from a local store,and caught up with some longtime family that I had not seen in years,hotel was nice enough they swapped me rooms when I had a nosey neighbor on the other side of me,big highlight was going back to the beach not swimming this time but wanding around and watching all the dogs,probably the most dogs I've seen at the beach,seagulls too,Haveing dinner overlooking the bay at a seaside diner,and finding a amazeing hole in the wall Pho place that was just insanely good,also stopped at a local joint high tech burrito and got some Insanely good tacos,probably some of the best I've had ever. Overall worth it and just enough time out there.
