California Dreamin'

Dale's fence has seen better days.

Hello from California. I flew down last Saturday and have been here for a week spending time with mom. When I got here it was windy, rainy, cold and just plain icky. (Can a manly man say icky?)
The sun has been out most days since then and although it hasn't been hot it has been shirt sleeve weather. I even dug up an old cactus for mom yesterday in my T-shirt.

As you can see from the photos, they had a bit of a storm down here a few weeks ago. Dale was without power for several days. Alas the fence that was constructed in time for Taryn's wedding is no more. Just one lonely panel standing all alone. That's the bad news of course. The good news is that for the next wedding, it shouldn't take more than 3 or 4 minutes to string lights on it.

Notice the tarps on the guest house roof.
