More Fun Stuff & Sun Stuff

Am finally getting around to updating this blog thing.  It was a fun 10 days while Victoria was here & We got to do a lot of fun stuff.  Was much more fun with some help, she always has some helpful suggestions! I guess we started (if I can remember right) after the last blog with our week-end trip to the beaches.  Hard to remember all but we started down by San Clemente with Laguna Beach.  Quite a nice little spot.  Found the car of our dreams (well at least our dreams in the early 70's)






then went on up the coast on Hwy 1, to Newport Beach, Redondo Beach, Seal Beach, ect. ect.



 

Then finally up to Long Beach.  Where we got a hotel with a pool & big jacuzzi bath tub.  Very nice but not to expensive about a couple of miles from downtown area & the beach.  Went to a famous Rib place for dinner & another drink (which I didn't need & Victoria drank water).  Naples Ribs.  Very good & lots of it so we weren't good for much after dinner & missed all the night life of Long Beach, which we hear is quite the party place.  Got up to an overcast day & went down town for some breakfast.

Breakfast, there was a Bloody Mary bar where you mixed your own in a small pitcher!
We are always looking for material for our "Bars of the World" album.  Got a parking ticket for not putting money in the meter!  there was plenty of parking @ that time in the morning but the power that was did not care about that.  $49.  A little much I would think so am protesting which I don't hold out much hope for. 
Then off to see a few sites.  It started raining about that time so was not as fun as the day before.  We went to the Queen Mary, wow, quite a boat.  Would have been nice to live in that era with money, but then there would have been WWII which wouldn't have been so pleasant. 



Then off to San Pedro for a look see, lunch & off to Redlands again.  About an hour & 1/2 drive so wasn't bad.  Victoria went back on Monday, hated to see her go but someone has to work & spend time in the cold so someone can afford to lay around in the sun!

Not much else happening in Loma Linda country.  Treatments are going well & am up to #27.  Went to Market Night in Redlands again last night.  Ate to much, but did walk down town & back home so I figure I worked all those calories off, well maybe not but it was a feeble attempt anyway.  Haven't been to any of the Proton functions for a couple of weeks but still going to the gym every other day.  Until next time.  If you are interested in more pictures I put a few in the "More Pictures" page at the bottom of the blog.
