We're here :0)

We're here in Sunny Ca and boy is it ever hot. It got up to around 100 yesterday when we arrived. Man oh man was it hot!!! It was a nice flight .. I sat beside some very lovely people... so it made my journey very enjoyable. In fact I spoke to a lovely young man that owns an organic veggie farm in Southern Ca. It was a really nice way to pass time while you wait. Visiting with others.
Speaking of temps, its been very pleasant in Ta Town. We were having temps in the low 70's. I am laughing because the Pitty had to get out and stretch her legs in my Aunts back yard when we arrived. Her tongue was hanging out a mile, when she came back in. She is so funny she spotted the Hummers this morning and started barking at them.... and guess who got dive bombed yes her ;) Speaking of the Pitty she was so good on the plane as usual, no noise no barking. Just a good quiet girl ;) She was so cute when I was wheeling her through the airport. She had the zipper lid open on her case and I was pulling her around the airport with her head poking out. She was watching everything that was going on. No barking and just watching the people going everywhere ;) It was so funny when people would see her sitting there with her little head poking out... You would hear them chuckle and say its a dog and its so cute ;) She is such a good traveling companion. As soon as I got here she had to have her collar and tag put on. Poor Poor little girl ....she is scratching and trying to run at the same time.. such a hoot to watch. She was even doing that rub the head and shoulder thing with the butt in the air trying to rub it off, scooting along the carpet. She doesn't wear a collar at home, I am with her at all times when she is out at home. To many dangers... Like the National bird the Bald Eagle.. they try to swoop down and get her. They must think she is a rabbit .. lunch!!!
I am going to be laying low a couple of days. Getting back my sea legs so to speak. I had some trouble with my ears clearing after I landed. It took almost 8 hours before they cleared. My mom thinks it might have been my allergies that cause some of the ear problems. Other than all of the excitement of the flight... we're here and will probably have something fun to report in a couple of days... Oh yes I forgot the most exciting news... I am going to be a Great Aunt again in April :) I am so excited!! Time to get started on a baby blanket for the BABY :) Maybe I will have to get that fabric while I'm here. I did see that mom has two sewing machines set up one in Grannies room and one out in the Atrium. I might get started on it here ;) Ok I am just jabbering.. but I wanted everyone to know I had a safe trip out here :) I will continue to post while on vac :)
Sorry no photos while on vac.. I don't want load my photos on my moms computer...
