*QUICK SIDE NOTE: Apparently, I’ve caught a bit of a summer cold, I’m guessing probably from being on a plane for so long. So if you called yesterday or today and haven’t gotten a response yet, I will get back to you as soon as I can talk without coughing in your ear!
Most of my trip to California revolved around movies – since my aunt had just had surgery, watching a movie was a good choice of things to do because it was something she could do comfortably, plus it was something everyone in the family could enjoy doing. I think when we counted, we had gotten up to six! Most were watched at her house, but we did make it out to the theater for The Incredible Hulk and Hancock. Not “must-sees”, but entertaining enough if you’re looking for something to do!
We did manage one day trip down to Mission Bay San Diego, where I had arranged to take two of my cousins, Jeremy and Matthew, out on the water for a wakeboarding lesson with Greg from WCR Wakeboard School. We ended up bringing another cousin, Joslynn, along with us and while she didn’t wakeboard, she manned the flag and bounced around in the tube better than anyone else! Since it was the weekend of the 4th, it was EXTREMELY crowded, but we managed just fine, even in nasty, choppy saltwater! I did get out there too, but when you’re a photographer, you rarely end up in front of the camera – so the only picture I have is one of me in the boat’s rear view mirror!
There’s more news from my California trip that is Chanterelle Photography related – but I can’t tell you just yet (and no, I am not moving back)! Look for another post in the near future!
