California here I come... * updated*

Ok, well, I guess I need to change the title to here I am. Yup, Kim's in rainy, coolish CA. It's just like Delaware! I'm traveling for work and flew into San Jose, CA yesterday. It was a long day of travel, I left for the airport at 4:45 am East Coast time and got to Asilomar around 4:00pm West Coast time. It's beautiful but I must admit I was hoping for a little sun =) Maybe later this week...

It's my first time to this part of CA. I have always hears how beautiful Montery is and I've wanted to explore San Francisco (not going to be able to this trip though). But I will be getting to go to the Montery Aquarium! I'll have to see how it stacks up against the National Aquarium in Baltimore. I had hoped that Ron & Maddie could join me and spend time exploring the area but that didn't work out. Maybe next year when this meeting is in San Diego they'll come with me.

So with me over here, you'll have to wait on the Halloween pictures and see the before and after jackolantern carving results! That is, unless Ron posts them while I'm away...which is unlikely with him watching a 3 yr old all day *grin*

Hope everyone has a good week! I'll try to take some pictures while I'm out here, hopefully some will have the sun and blue sky =)

*update* Photos from Halloween have been posted! They show up with an October 31st date as I had started the post but didn't finish it before I left for CA

Kim,

The Monterey Bay Aquarium (of which I am a Charter Member!) is not even remotely comparable to the National Aquarium in Baltimore.

You'll see, I promise!!

:)

Have a wonderful time - I'm envious - if I could get a decent job there, I'd go home to Monterey in a heartbeat, and never ever move again!
