Rent Check

No longer are the chicken girls freeloaders!  Found three eggs yesterday and looking forward to a couple more today.  Soooooooooo cool!

CABO & Turning 35!

For my 35th B-day we scored a free place to stay at the tip of Baja, somewhere near Cabo San Lucas.  The guys were stoked to score some waves and the girls were stoked to score some pool time.  Funny thing was that we timed it perfectly to be between two great swells...This resulted in the guys driving hours each day on a hunt for something to ride while the girls hung poolside.  I can assure you we drove a lot of that coast line.  I'm also pretty sure the only reason we didn't go to Mexican jail (or have to pay a bribe) had to do with a wasp flying into my jeep and stinging me while the cop was asking for all kinds of paper work.  The feds thought it was hilarious to hear me scream like a girl, then let me jump out of the car and take my shirt off...the people behind us gave me a look like "you have to take your shirt off here?"!  I bet the feds are still telling jokes about that one, i know i am.  It wasn't until the last day that we all caught some 5-7 Ft waves at a fun uncrowded spot.  I think K caught the waves of the day before heading to the airport!  

Fun photos in random order:  

How can you not take your picture with this sign???

This is at a spot called Zippers, it obviously wasn't zipping so we all watched the sunset and had a beer.

Same beach

We had an amazing view of the blood-moon eclipse!  

In the middle of nowhere the dirt road turned into a brand new paved for about 1/2 mile.  This area is still recovering from last years hurricane.

This beach is at a spot called shipwrecks.  Nice and isolated

There were a couple "subdivision" entrances without a house in sight. Nor a store. Or restaurant.  Or people for that matter.  Looks cool though!

Me pissed off looking at lake Pacific.  "What the hell, it was 8 ft here 3 days ago. And where the hell is the taco stand? Why isn't there a taco stand on every corner here?"

The girls playing in the back seat.  Either those smiles are fake or it was taken just after lunch.  We often found ourselves starving with no food for miles & miles & miles....

On the way to snorkel "cabo pulmo".  Actually some of the best snorkeling i've done.  The reef wasn't in great shape but fish everywhere and right off the beach.

Our one group photo!

Flatness as far as the eye can see.  And yes we pulled into everyone of those coves in site to make sure no waves were breaking....

I think this stop was at shipwrecks.  The only people on the beach and no civilization for miles

B trying to pretend that he may see a wave....

This is one of my favorite photos.  I'm not sure if you can tell but those two girls are running for their life.  If they had taken another minute to pull their flippers off that shore pound wave was going to take them out!  Solid 5+ feet as it hit the beach.  Also two random friendly dogs on the beach (we gave them some water)  

LIFE IS GOOD!

with the videos this time

Birds. Again i know...

So here is a fun chicken pic and also a fun parrot video.  Thinking of changing the name of the blog or creating new Bird blog....!

Sweet 16 San Diego Style

A couple of weeks ago we helped my cousin, M celebrate her 16th birthday, ocean style!

We cruised by work for a dolphin tour and then to the farmers market and surf shop. M brought her friend L along from Phoenix and Harley had them trained to deliver fruit to him in no time! 

Aunt J had never been on a boat on the ocean so we went on a whale watch tour. No whales, but we ran into a very large pod of dolphins, maybe 500, jumping and playing!

Happy sweet 16 Melissa!!!
