Right before we left the Dallas airport for MP...smoltering HOT!

We went to Carlsbad, CA to visit my brother and sister in law last weekend. The weather was a little chillier than I had expected. After all...this is Southern California. It was approx. 67-70 degrees the whole time we were there. Overcast, except the last day. We had a great time anyway.

FYI: I haven't talked much about my bro on the blog b/c he doesn't live in Mt. P. He is 2 yrs older than I am and has not lived in MP since he graduated...somewhat of a "city boy" I think. Anyway,they have a home in Austin but have been in CA while my bro was getting his Gemologist degree. He is a "diamond broker" and wanted the credentials to go along with his several years experience in the field. They will hopefully return to Austin in Sept. or Oct.

We had wonderful time but I was glad to get back home. The boys can only take so many days of hotel, you know? I would highly recommend planning a trip to the San Diego area, next time you get the chance.
