the wife and I + her sister & kids and Mom, my sister and her husband and kid all went down to the beach for a week. We rented a beach house and just mellowed out. I walked the beach alot, played in the water and found my first sharks tooth.
Oh I took a lot of pics as well.

We're tentatively planning a trip from southern California to eastern Washington State. Probably won't be until the end of July, but we're definately talking about making it a scenic trip. Will probably take highway 1 up California. The coastline is beautiful. Past that, I've not done any trip planning. |

Whew! You had me a little worried there for a second. February huh... couldn't we go now and just stay through February?
How do you like your rum? Pina Colada's or Mai Tai's?
Oh ya, you should try to memorize this song before we leave...
Red, red wine
Goes to my head
Makes me forget that I
Still need you so
Red, red wine
It`s up to you
All I can do, I`ve done
memories won`t go
memories won`t go
I have sworn everytime
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong now I find
Just one thing makes me forget
Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don`t let me be alone
It`s tearin` apart
My blue, blue heart
I have sworn everytime
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong now I find
Just one thing makes me forget
Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearin' apart
My blue, blue heart
---Red Red Wine Rap Section---
Red red wine you make me feel so fine
You keep me rocking all of the time
Red red wine you make me feel so grand
I feel a million dollars when your just in my hand
Red red wine you make me feel so sad
Any time I see you go it makes me feel bad
Red red wine you make me feel so fine
Monkey pack him rizla pon the sweet dep line
Red red wine you give me whole heap of zing
Whole heap of zing mek me do me own thing
Red red wine you know of love
Your kind of loving like a blessing from above
Red red wine I love you right from the start
Right from the start with all of my heart
Red red wine in a 80`s style
Red red wine in a modern beat style, yeah
(Chorus)
Give me little time, help me clear up me mind
Give me little time, help me clear up me mind
Give me Red wine because it make me feel fine
Make me feel fine all of the time
Red red wine you make me feel so fine
Monkey pack him rizla on the sweet dep line
The line broke, the monkey get choke
Burn bad rizla pon him little rowing boat
Red red wine I`m gonna hold to you
Hold on to you cause I know you love true
Red red wine I`m gonna love you till I die
Love you till I die and that`s no lie
Red red wine can`t get you out of mind
Where ever you maybe I`ll surely find
I`ll surely find make no fuss jus` stick with us.
(Chorus)
Red red wine you really know of love
Your kind of loving like a blessing from above
Red red wine I love you right from the start
Right from the start with all of my heart
Red red wine you give me whole heap of zing
Whole heap of zing mek me do me own thing
Red red wine in a 80`s style
Red red wine in a modern beat style, yeah.

Saturday we leave for a 6 day supported hike in Glacier National Park.--We are supposed to bring a daypack only So I am perseverating over how much photography stuff to take. Camera-yes, but which lenses? Wide angle for sure. Telephoto zoom-yes. I'm struggling over the macro lens. I enjoy macro photography and if e have a cloudy day, I could still take photos, but might be way too much!
