He's Back!

Late last night...we rolled into beautiful San Diego...aw, come on...we can say that...from an equally gorgeous place...Santa Barbara...where the kids are...only stayed 2 nights, so we wouldn't start smelling...right, isn't that how the phrase goes?...BTW, pictured, is our residence...2nd tall one on the right...

Got our teeth cleaned, thank you Dr Cris...and had a "new to us" procedure used...something like sand blasting with baking soda...to get the ornery stains out...have to admit, as white as I have ever seen our toothies...hmmm, a word?...all in all, a great visit...the kids are extremely driven and are hard workers...just like me...wait, no resemblance whatsoever...

Speaking of kids...you know who the rapper DMX is?...yea, me either...but he made the world wide web net...just had his 15th kid...what?...he isn't on the path of the Duggars is he?...don't think the dude is married...and did file for bankruptcy a while back...too much child support....it's really not that funny...imagine...

Hey, one thing about the road trip...is you listen to a lot of music from the radio...at times, had XM's the 60's on...gawd, the Beatles "She Loves You" was such a fun song...yeah yeah yeah...

Arrived to turn on the pixels and catch yet another loss...this time to the very solid Cubbies...the last inning or so...geez, it looked like a home game for Chi-town team...the locals must have made a mint off of Stub Hub...as the "season tix" were sold to Cub fans...happens when SF, LA, and Boston come to Petco and embarrass the local Padres...ha ha...amongst others...

The Clinton Foundation...the latest topic that the media will devour for the next week...looking for some cracks in the foundation....ah, sorry about that....seems to always end up in the emails for the Hilz...right?...

To be fair and honest...the Trump Empire...same "cracks" hunting...by the same blokes, my guess...even more so by the other side...gotta find the missing item to attack ...hey, this method of campaigning has gone on forever....right?...forever...

I had this big, long, story about a jilted prom date...ha ha...decided to squash it...enough to say, that, as the etiquette gal, Martha Stewart, might put it, "it's not a good thing!"...

One thing that is troublesome...as we took Sammi to the beach...where she can go...there was a combo of oil and water coming ashore...took a good long time to get that bloody tar off of our feet and hooves...SB has a bunch of oil rigs...enough said...

I'm gonna be talking to the older, elders, on this topic...still the music in the car thing..."Muskrat Love"...remember it?...by the Captain and Tennille....well now...after 39 years of marriage she decided to divorce the good Capt...just discovered that he wasn't a good enough lover, it is written...what? took her almost 4 decades to figure it out?...just smashes their the big hit to smithereens, "Love Will Keep Us Together"...right...HEY!...we have a signed album cover by the both of them from 1989...hanging in the office...

Couple of post script things that finalized while we were gone...California Chrome destroyed (bad word in the horse industry) the others in the Pacific Classic...6+ lengths out at Del Mar...and the guys Oly hoops played up to ability...and won the gold...KD was super...as was the C Cousins...he is a load...if he can just figure out temperament...the US ran away with the medal count...especially the gals...

Food...yes...that is on the agenda...off to the grocery store...
