Judy and Paul came to visit

Paul working on his annual wood lathe projects.....

After a few days at home, we visited Corinne and Marlowe at their B&B in Paso. Ami and Ana came down from SF for the weekend.



We took off to the coast and enjoyed lunch in Morro Bay. We saw some great kite boarding at Morro Rock and enjoyed the "rock".





Later we went to Cambria and onto Hearst Castle. Of`course we stopped to see the elephant seals.
Here's Morro Rock from up the coastl




Back at the B&B we had some of Marlowe's famous fish tacos.


It did get a little cold.....here's their frozen fountain.
