Thanks, Diva, for my spot on the beach, watching the sunset. Of course if I want to watch the sunset these days, I have to wait til 11:30pm.

[LaDivaLoca]

Oh that is so sweet of him! What a wonderful young man. Please extend our big THANK YOU for his service to our country. Let him know that he has a lot of supporters out here. Please, if it's not an imposition on my part, keep us updated of his visit.

[tame]

That is funny :o)

I have to leave Bakersfield shortly and go back to Fresno and gather signatures to recall Gray Davis. Please pray that I'll have a safe drive over there, and a safe and profitable time getting signatures.

[Fawnn]

You're a good hubby!

Keep us updated.

[Soaring Feather]

Lovely story from you as well Diva, thanks.

[LaDivaLoca]

I feel your pain. I only manage to have meals like those when I'm on vacation. So I work my cute b***t off so I can at least go on vacation twice a year. LOL! So, for now, I guess, we can keep on dreaming.

Speaking of sunsets, on my last trip, we drove to Coronado Island to visit the Coronado hotel, famous for it's ghost who still roams the hotel - that's according to the story. It was a little cloudy but it was such a nice opportunity for us to walk the beach and have some drinks at the hotel watching the sun go down.

Oh, and let me add a side story. Before we were about to cross that long bridge from San Diego to the island, I mentioned to my niece and her friends that we used to hold our breath, make a wish and let it go until we reach the end of the bridge. Would you know that my niece who was driving was also holding her breath?! I was so upset with her - what if she blacked out? Of course, it would have been my fault for sharing that stupid story! LOL! My niece, ever the sweet, calm woman that she is just laughed it off and said, "I love you, Tita (auntie)!" All was forgiven. LOL!

[fatima]

Tonk,I will do that,when all was coming down all I heard was they were just doing the job,when it was over for them is when they all sat down and talked and went over everything.Jim always wanted to be there for Karen,she is there now.Her letter said she looked forward to walking barefoot on the beach.
