ON VACATION!!

That's right, everybody - here I am at the Golden Towers of Stenniville (population 2).

After a very long ride on the train (the conductors were nice enough to point out the sights to us as we rode, such marvels as The Hairpin Turn where we could see both the front and the back of the train AT THE SAME TIME, the San Luis Obispo penatentiary and "Brad and Jen's House.") I have ARRIVED.

We had quite the time in Santa Barabara, eating at a little known mom and pop mexican restaraunt (mama y papa?) that served up a mean margarita. Then the ride back to Stenniville, singing Beatles songs all the way. We stayed up LATE (or early, which do you consider 4am?).

And today we took our own sweet time getting going, ate some FINE french toast a la Stennie, and made our way to Venice Beach. It was COLD at the beach, so much so that the first thing we all did was buy sweatshirts. We had a good time. Now Sten and I are about to watch an old Jimmy Stewart movie which neither of us have seen....Pot 'O Gold. And I'm drinking one of the Bartles and James leftover when I was last down in February. Mmmm, aged to perfection.

Cheers!
