Wedesday in Pasadena

The weather continues to be warm here. The storm fronts that were predicted have not arrived...I guess we were tuned into a TV station in some other country when we heard that report. There have been two earthquakes the past few days...but we didn't feel them here. They say that because of the way this house is built, they have never felt an earthquake when they are at home. Bob's grand daughter was at the movies when the first one hit & she felt it there.

Bob is helping with some projects around here. One was to remove a big tree that was right in the middle of their driveway area. It's down but they are working on cutting up the 7 foot stump that has been left behind. It's about 30 inches in diameter so is pretty heavy. They also trimmed a long row of Oleander that was out of control. All those trimmings were taken to the dump this morning.

We are thinking about leaving here next Tuesday morning and going to a campground at San Clemente for a couple days. I really want to see more of San Diego, especially Sea World. So I'm hoping we can go there from the campground.

We are still planning on going down to the Los Angeles wholesale district for some new drapes for Bob's rental. He got some from Penney's up in Tacoma but after hanging them discovered they had a huge flaw across the middle. So he took them all back for a refund. His daughter feels we can get some at half the cost in the drapery section downtown L.A.

For some reason, all of a sudden my little Acer Aspire Notebook is not picking up their wireless signal. I have done everything I can think of to get it to work but it won't connect. They have a friend visiting right now & his laptop is linking up to it but not mine. So I've been using the laptop belonging to Bob's daughter the last couple days.

Well, that's about all for now...hope everyone is well. I miss visiting every one's Blogs but since I'm back on a borrowed laptop, my time on line is limited. Linda
