BOO HOO..heading East today.....
Good morning / evening once again from San Diego, CA….
WOW…one of the few places I have ever been that seems frozen in time. Last time I was here was over 30 years ago when I tried the Navy out. I vividly remembered how beautiful the region was, but more importantly how nice the weather is…nothing has changed. The area is absolutely amazing, and the weather is to die for. Cool mornings and nights, and mid 70’s and sunny during the day, absolute perfection!
Yesterday was a day for driving around (in a rental car) and seeing the coast from Mexico up to La Jolla (which was the RICHEST area I think we have ever been too, not Mexico, La Jolla…lol)…and yes, we drove to the boarder…so we almost made it to Mexico, but we left the passports back in the MH…oh well.
On the drive up the coast we went to where I went to boot camp, and actually found the row of barracks I was in. Man did it open a flood gate of memories, very strange. The base was shut down during Clinton’s BRAC, but the barracks are still standing, for now, and are used for Fire training…the “smoke house” for boot camp was in the same place but has been updated. Again, very surreal being back on that ground again…Ok, enough of sentimental stuff…the rest of the day was hanging at beaches, swimming in oceans and bays, and then a dinner out, and a late night work meeting…
All and all a very relaxing and blessed day! Today…may not be so restful…we will see!
So until the next blog…have a blessed day!
So close to Mexico...
