Family Time, Does Not Get Better Than That !!

Monday, April 4, 2016


Yesterday, Apr 2, hiked 1.2 mi over dunes by Pismo Beach, and found this scene looking north and south. RV’s and campers as far as the eye can see in both directions (right click the images and open larger).


Have been on the road for 4 weeks now. And will be home tomorrow afternoon. First went to Napa Valley, of course there you have to visit one or two, or three vineyards and sample the local vinos, ... and buy some.


Had picnic at one vineyard with Sandra and friends. Yep, a good time was had by all !!


We also had wine at Sandra’s. And again, a good time was had by all !!


Then headed to Sacramento to visit bro Jacques and his family. As I was getting ready to Drive Bigfoot and Littlefoot to San Diego, bro Jacques decided he would come along. Cool I thought. Off we went, the plan was to stop in Palm Spring for a few days. That was great, we hiked every day. Palm Spring is great place to hike this time of the year.



Bro Jacques, 8 yrs my senior. Hiking seems to agree with him. When I reach his age hope to still hike, and hike like my bro, a hiking machine.


On the right, one of our hiking trails, and you can see why they call it Palm Springs. In the many years that have hiked there, had never done this trail, awesome !!

There was some 50 to 60 mph wind gust that day, that blows you off your feet, it happened to us several times.


Eventually we made to San Diego, what is there ? Bro Johannes lives there, and I was due to house sit there for two weeks, while he and wife vacation at Big Bear Lake. Below, the three of us, this does not happen often. One of my nieces, Claris, hosted a dinner. Two of my nieces here, on the left is Claris, on the right is Angela, and their mom in the middle. Yes, we had some wine with dinner. Life is Great !!!



As this blog is getting long (blogs should be short, my opinion), will end here. And do another in a few days.
