This past week, I spent time in San Diego. I’m married to a scientist who goes to a plant and animal genetics conference held in San Diego every January and, this year, I tagged along. The entire week before we left was below zero in Minnesota, so heading to California was most welcome. We stayed away from the conference site at a place in Pacific Beach called the Blue Sea Beach Hotel. The ocean was right outside the door.

Therapeutic. No doubt about it. May the following photos either inspire you to write something or to book a flight.





Happy weekend.
Special thanks for the hummingbird photo. Quite meaningful at this very moment. Sending love.

Hummingbirds are such beautiful creatures, aren’t they? I’m glad you found meaning in that one.

Not inspired to write – but I could feel tension run down my back and to the ground as I gazed at your photos. Megathanks.

Wonderful pictures! It looks like a relaxing time. Really like the San Juan Capistrano Mission picture. I could see myself sitting there, soaking in the sun.

That mission was a wonderful place to wander around and sit for a while.
