La Jolla - wrong light setting on my camera

Last week Jody, Amy (Jody's sister), and I went to San Diego to check the place out. While it was not exactly beach weather because it was overcast most of the time, we explored the city, went to the zoo and had a good time.

In Dog Heaven

No dogs the landlord says?? How about a rottie, a pit, and a mutt?

Insanity

Last weekend Abbie, Christi, Travis, and a few of Travis' friends who are actually acrobats/riggers from Venezuela, and I went out to Lake Mojave (Lake Mead, but on the other side of the dam) for what we thought was going to be a relaxing day at the beach. However, instead, we got a day spent with most of redneck NV and AZ on a beach of glass, trash and gasoline. We did finally find a little cove that was a bit less trashed (although there were still diapers on the beach) and managed to get the dogs there (see pics above) to salvage the day. At least to company was good!

Local Sort-of-Wildlife

Our neighbor here in Blue Diamond owns two wolves who like to sit up on the hoods of his classic corvets in a very '70's black velvet painting' manner. I've heard that they are friendly, but haven't had the guts to test it out yet because, well, they're huge and eye you up like they'd like to have you for dinner. Just another reason why I love living out here:)
