Biking Adventures






We see interesting things sometimes on our daily bike rides. First, as we leave our neighborhood on Woodhouse St. we have new neighbors who conduct a business where their driveway always looks like a yard sale. They buy abandoned storage items to resell. They recently brought in a big semi trailer like storage container parked on the side of their driveway. If you look closely you can see where they knocked off the corner of their roof backing it in. We think they have been reported to the city. There is another neighbor on our street who blatantly conduct an Ebay business on their driveway with all kind of vehicles, lumber and trash. We all take pride in our neighborhood and don't appreciate it being trashed like that.

The other day on our bike ride Cindy noticed a small sink hole which is potentially dangerous. A bike tire could get caught in it. Ah...the adventures of bike riding!

San Diego Hardware

San Diego Hardware has a lot of cool things. We were there looking for a decorative handle for our screen door that match the decorative handles on our new roll up garage door. They have a lot of cool plumbing fixtures and as I walked by a toilet the cover went up automatically. I should have checked if it went down automatically.

The Big 65







Yesterday was Mike's 65th birthday. It started with a Swedish massage at "Massage Envy". Mona helped me make coconut cup cakes. Dan, Cindy and Mike had take out for dinner from D'lish. Then we drove to the USS Midway for a CCT musical called "Let Freedom Ring". The music was so patriotic. A wonderful day indeed!

Geek Squad




What is a GEEK SQUAD van doing in front of our house? Do we need technical support for our computers when we have DAN? No, actually, GEEK SQUAD does appliances now. The refrigerator we bought at BEST BUY has a problem with the ice maker so we called them before our warranty runs out. No, we're not crackpots! We got them at Mark and Crisha's wedding.

New Garage Door






We just had a new roll up garage door installed to replace our old, old wooden garge door. With Most of Dan's stuff moved to his own garage we had the incentive to upgrade. Viva la difference! Note the before and after pictures.

Mark and Crisha's Wedding





Today we attended Mark and Crisha's wedding held at her parent's huge backyard. It was casual style with a Mexican food buffet. They have a large vegetable garden scattered on the property; a very nicely landscaped yard. Dan manned the photo booth where people had their picture taken and they scrapbooked their pictures in a souvenir scrapbook for the newlyweds. It was a great wedding day for all, especially for Mark and Crisha Hensler!
