final day with Judy

This is a view of Morro Rock from the south at Los Osos. We could see most of the "seven sisters" from there.
 
 As we took Judy to the airport in SLO, we stopped in Avila Beach for some wonderful seafood and clam chowder at the Custom House........a must stop for us.

 
We saw seals, otters (one with a baby on her stomach as they were resting on the backs in the kelp) and two whales from the old Avila Pier.



Here's Judy talking to Megan from the pier...........


It was such a beautiful day. If you can see white on the distant shore, that's the Pismo  dunes.
It was really great having Judy visit with us........and we put her to work too!!

 



more visiting

We were able to meet up with Aaron and Evan at Firestone Grill in SLO........always great to catch up with these Cal Poly students and also enjoy that wonderful tri tip. Thanks Dale and Barbie for lending them to us for an afternoon........

 
more great sunset shots at the B&B
 
We had a celebration with Laura & Joel and Todd & Tressa at Roberts.......it was for  Judy's birthday,  Todd's birthday and Carol & my 45th anniversary!!! It was really fun......


time at the B&B and having breakfast with Kegan

this is the kitchen we work in (?).......it's a real pleasure!

 
I put some of my woodturning out for display. It'll be going in the San Diego County Fair and into a show at Studios in the Park in up here in Paso.

 
We had breakfast at Louisa's in SLO with Kegan, Cal Poly student. Thanks Steve and Denise for lending him to us for the morning........it's always fun to see where they're going.......

Judy visits us at the B&B

Judy  came to visit for two weeks. Here we are at Berry Hill Bistro........and it was  good!!!

 
Here's Judy on the mule, we're on the far side of the vineyard looking  back at the B&B and barn.
