Twinkie Hits the Beach

Feb 17 - Laguna Beach allows dogs only from Oct to May.  Twinkie heard that and decided to go see the sand and surf for himself.   He's smart enought to know just how close he can get to the waves without getting wet.

It's a dog's life for him.


















Dad Visits Sel in Chi-Town

Feb 10 - Brrrr.  16 degrees outside, wind chill ZERO.  But Selena's warm smile makes this visit a short, but sweet one.  Dinner at the Weber Grill followed by a day of errands was all we could squeeze in.  It's a good thing this is a "mild" winter.

These little guys were crowded on whatever sun they could find away from the wind.

Spurs (and Dad) Visit Philly at the same time

Feb 8 - Just two days after seeing the Bulls - Nets, I got a chance to see my Spurs vs the Sixers.   Perfect timing.  Bad weather came into the area and the roads were icy.  I only drove part way into town and caught a train and subway to avoid any problems.  Lots of empty seats turned my $3.00 ticket into a much more valuable seat.  And the SPURS won!
