Palm Springs to Mission Beach, March 25

   Today we packed up from Desert Vacation Villas and headed over the San Jacinto Mountains toward San Diego, opting to take the mountain road instead of the highway. It was a great day for traveling and the views were great. Once again we have been able to see the desert in bloom which is special.

We stopped for a lunch in Temecula and then got on I-15 for the rest of the journey. We have rented a small second-floor apartment on San Fernando Place in Mission Beach very close to the roller coaster. It is not fancy, but will do.

San Diego Area. We are in Mission Bay. Frank and Linda live up by the A in La (for La Jolla)

      We met Frank and Linda Morral at White Sands where they now live in La Jolla. We went on a tour of their resort-like home and met their new Border Terrier, Ocho and re-acquainted ourselves with their old dog, Harley.
      Then, we went on a bus with them and other White Sands residents to see Rope, a musical at 10th Street Theater. (It was rather mediocre, I am afraid.) But, it was nice to be out with Frank and Linda.
