Wednesday, August 22

We took our first long walk tonight down to the Mediterranean along the Cornish. Traffic was pretty heavy so we stayed on the land side. Didn’t want to risk life and limb yet – although we are planning a little drive out to Green Plaza on Friday so Pat can visit her hair stylist (Ahmed). The walk was very nice with a strong breeze off the sea. So many people are out and about. We ran into two of out incoming seniors near Starbucks. We have just a few days now before school starts. Most of the regular schools don’t start till mid-September – our kids will have to cut their “holiday” a little short. We saw our first big traffic jam on Schutz Street coming home. A car tried to pass bus on the right side (the bus was in the middle of the street stopped to let someone off as oncoming traffic was coming head on to the bus. Everyone stopped and honked on one of the drives got out to shake his fist at the bus driver. But after a little while everyone calmed down and they worked it out. The week is winding down – well be nice to have a couple of days off to recharge before school begins on Sunday.
