Happy Anniversary to Mr and Mrs ebk!! Many more to you xo

 

Thank you all so much.  It was a lovely day.  We may have found a condo for my friend - at least one I would live in.  And it's all about me... ;)

 

And dinner with sis was great.  Hope Mr ebk is having an okay day at the theatre... :D

 

 

 

Oh...and yay Terps!!!!

I'm going condo shopping with a friend, then having dinner with my sister.  Mr ebk is working.

 

Ah, romance... :)

Lucky 13!  Congrats :) I hope you sneak in a little romance somewhere! ♥♥

Enjoyed the day off and it was a gorgeous day, to boot. Went to one of my favourite places...Point Dume, Malibu. Started at Zuma Beach, or as I like to call it: Neil Young's beach. Whales and sea lions and dolphins were out in force...even got a wave from a whale. Unfortunately I was too slow to get a photo of them jumping up out of the water. What a sight.

Hiked from Zuma to Pirate's Cove. Spring is here and the flowers are in bloom and the sea lions like to take advantage of the warm sun.

Further on past Pirate's Cove is Paradise Cove, a great swimming and sunbathing spot. Not too many people. After a midday swim I napped in the sun. When I woke up I noticed I had a little friend joining me for a siesta.

Oh my gosh, Strider  absolutely beautiful. Viva California! 

 

Thanks to the person upthread reminding me: tickets for the Carole King musical Beautiful go on sale today in my neck o' the woods. Must see. I listened to the audiobook of her autobiography (narrated by Ms. King herself) and loved it. She's a genius and an American treasure.

Great pics, Strider!  What a beautiful place.  Nothing like a little saltwater therapy to cure all that ails ya...my idea of a perfect day.  And what a treasure to have the sea lion hanging out with you, he/she was showing off for you! ;)

So happy you got the chance to see "Beautiful". I am seeing it again when it comes to the Pantages soon.

She...I think it was a she...was definitely showing off. Rolling around and posing and barking. And you are right...a day at the beach is more therapeutic than any therapist.

Looks amazing, Strider! and so deserted.... I always think of California beaches as being so overcrowded! :)

Santa Monica-Venice-South Bay...Zuma and Malibu on the weekends...these beaches are crowded. As well as Huntington and Newport and Laguna in Orange County. But that still leaves hundreds of miles of coastland, much of it accessible only via ardous hiking over rocks and cliffs. These are the hidden gems of the California coast where one can truly commune with nature.

Thanks so much ladies!!  (Sorry, I must have missed these when you posted them...I'm blaming my advanced age...:) )

 

Kiwi, I totally remember that show (probably when it first aired!) and was singing along all the way.

 

Jules, there's always romance in this house.  I'm a really lucky person!!

Guess again.

:hysterical: 

Corr Blimey! You are so full of shit, Mr. Jones! My friend Chillumpuffer and I, were gloating over England's victory over New Zealand in a very important cricket match, that concluded barely 2 hours ago. Kiwi_Zep_Fan bet that NZ will win, but that did not happen, get it?!

Since you seem to be pretty slow on the uptake (or let your insecurities get the better of you), let me explain it again, only this time in a way that you might understand. We were talking about  S-P-O-R-T-S. Who gives a shit about whether you continue to post on this forum or not? It's your choice and I really think that you need a gentle reminder that : not everything on this forum is about you!

Get over yourself, you pathetic narcissist! :hysterical: 

Here is an article about the recently concluded CRICKET MATCH that CP and I were talking about, Sherlock! Take a look. You might actually learn something.

Having fun always makes me happy

Seems that the return of springtime brings out the bullshittest in me.
While sitting next to the smoking cabin after work (we always have to wait for 15 mins til the bus arrives) this kinda new guy pops op and asks us why we are sitting there.
(g) Why are you sitting here, and not at the bus stop?
(me) We are waiting for the helicopter.
(g) Helicopter????
(me) Yeah but it seems the pilot got delayed......years ago when I was with Led Zeppelin that would have never happened with our own aeroplane.
(g) Wow, you were really in Led Zeppelin????
(me) Yup, I'm Ozzy James Dio, just picking up my sisters.
