Off to Los Osos to lend my Mom a hand in packing up her life and getting ready for the move north. This photo is of the oaks near her house. I will miss my visits down there - the ocean, the slow pace of the small town, the fabulous views from my parent's dining room and kitchen. And I will sorely miss my family as it was. It should be a bitter sweet visit.

Still no baby boy! Perhaps he is shooting for Labor Day. If so, he would share a birthday with car designer Ferdinand Porsche - not bad company!
