Mark and I flew to San Diego yesterday to begin a tour of the southwest with our friends, Kevin and Jeff. Other than the fastest, simplest check-in we’ve ever had (thank you TSA Precheck) not a lot to report about the journey. Air travel just sucks.
We arrived around 5:00 yesterday, hung out at the house for a bit, then went to a Mexican restaurant, Ortega’s, for dinner. I wasn’t sure I’d be able to find anything to eat, but I ended up with steak tacos that were deliciously spicy. And I discovered a new drink— horchata. Yum! Milk or some kind of creamy base with vanilla and cinnamon. I understand that there are a lot of varieties, many including rice, and I’m sure I’ll love discovering them all.
Just a photo of Kevin and Jeff’s back yard (where we got married in 2014) before we get on the road.

San Diego was the one city I always wanted to live in as I spent three years in the Navy there. I loved the climate, the city, and the ability to do some many things on a weekend. Enjoy your time there.
We’ve only been to SD twice before, but it’s always been a treat. The weather is wonderful. If I could afford it, it would definitely be a place I’d consider living.
