California

I've been singing that tune-"California here I come..." Wow! The traffic is unreal!! You know you are from the hills when six lane highways are mind blowing! ! The people are nice! Very friendly and cooperative. The environment is different. Lots of brown yards. I heard that they are behind in rainfall. Beautiful homes! Wow...the gated community I saw today was amazing!
I had to get up early and head out immediately because of the conference schedule. I found myself running fast! My goal was the beach! I am located about 1/2 mile from HWY 101, this runs along the ocean. I enjoyed it! Had to run back and get Sandy and take her to the ocean. So vast! I am so disappointed that I won't be able to meet up with Anne and Meg. The conference is important, and I need to not miss anything. Maybe some day, though. I'm thinking about running a marathon out here.
I figured about 4 miles today. No running tomorrow...no time...or Wednesday...traveling....so the taper is not starting too well? Congratulations to Carlee, Bill, and Jamie on running such great times in their marathon! Peace!

You are so close! Oh well, how about coming back in January for the Carlsbad Marathon? It's filling up fast, think about it! Hope your conference goes well.

Thanks!!! Enjoy Cali; I want to get out there someday! 6 lane highways, however, would probably put me in the fetal position.

What - only six lanes of freeway?! We have 10-12 on my side of the city, and a "freeway within a freeway." I was going to suggest Carlsbad Marathon if you want to do one out there. There's always the Rock 'n' Roll in June too. Enjoy the rest of your stay.

      This is the most wonderful time of year! I love the heat and humidity! Yet I still get out earlier due to my advanced age! 4.4 miles! ...
