I neglected to mention where in California.  Vista.

Just inland from Oceanside and Carlsbad.

The view out the back window.

Momma dove on a nest.

The view out front.

We’re not in Colorado either.  We’re in California for a few days.  Flew out here for a visit with Barbara Shockley, Judy’s sister-in-law.  A lot like a sister.

Here is the approach to her house from the street.  The driveway on the right.

The kids will remember this from our trips out here in the VW Bus on Spring Breaks when they were little.  Farther up.

At the top.

And the look back out.

We have a new rider.  A black-footed ferret.

Nice day for a soccer match.

The Rapids hosted that team from Utah as the announcer called them.  The Salt Lake Real.  The Rapids fell behind early but came back with two goals before the end of the first half.  Then the rain came.

Then the severe thunderstorm warning.

Then it got worse.  After over an hour of rain, Becky, Judy, and I bailed and headed home.  Brian and the girls stayed to wait it out.  We had a good time.  Brian, Teigan, and Elise are probably still having a good time.

Yellow-breasted chat.
