So anyway.... one week ago today, we drove allllll day Tuesday and allllllll night long, arriving in Santa Maria at 5:30 a.m.
A. and I went directly to bed. S. took a nap. D. just stayed up and talked with Grandma.
That afternoon I took the kids to Paul Nelson Pool:
...where I sat on the grass and knitted while they swam and went down a waterslide like this (look, Ma, BLUE SKY!):
After dinner, we went to the closest beach, Guadalupe--where you do NOT swim, because the undertow is too great. Matter of fact, we darn near froze because the marine layer (aka FOG) was blowing in and the wind, as always, was pretty strong. Grandma and D. were rather chilly posing for this shot (she will kill me if she sees that I put this here):
But, cold water, marine layer fog, and stiff wind notwithstanding, S still managed to fall and get her bum all wet:
And the morning, evening, morning and evening were The First Day.

on the picture of D and your mom I thought you were going to say "See, mom, gray sky!" Or "Are we in Seattle". Or something silly like that. Glad you had a great time!
D'oh! I missed out on a good opportunity for parallel witticism! Fortunately you found it.
