It just so happened that we had big plans and lots of exciting things on Memorial Day weekend, even though that isn’t a holiday here.
Mikko and Matthew and Seamus went camping on the Presa Peralillo. Some friendly fellows came with a boatload of kids, fishing poles and an air gun. They shared it all.
Butch and I stayed home and defrosted the fridge!!! I listened to NPR streaming through my computer, real loud. It was heaven.
Then on Sunday night the boys came home and Little Mary Wheeler flew in from Portland!!
On Monday we went to Escondido, hotsprings outside of San Miguel. This is the only picture from there. I’d just like to point out - water distorts things.
We had a fabulous time waiting for the bus, with beers, and cards and an amazing girl who chatted, took pictures and played with us while her mother read at a nearby table.










That water looks so blue and lovely! What fun!
