My first full weekend here

Hello Friends!

I've officially got cable and internet! It feels good to be connected again. But the few days without it got me thinking. It was only 15 years ago that the internet was this luxury. Now I can hardly live without it! Oh how times have changed.

On Thursday I took a walk from my apartment to the beach. It is 2.7 miles there (and that means 2.7 miles back!) The summers are pretty foggy because of the temperature differences I guess. So it hasn't been sunny california in the mornings like I was expecting. But it clears up in the afternoons.

Today is the annual "Woodies on the Warf". People bring their old wood paneled station wagons and their surfboards. I'm going to head out that way and take a few pictures. The summer season has begun and they've got little events like that every weekend.

Also on my schedule for the weekend is to find some furniture. There are a few thrift stores and a sizeable flea market not more than 5 minutes away. I'm going to look there for some different pieces of furniture to put in my apartment. Yesterday I did get a table for my TV so it is not on the floor anymore. But I have to eat on the floor (my table is a cardboard box).

So I'm off! Keep in touch!
