Pixture of the Month 0716.1

This gnarly old dude stands on the cliffs.... above Carlsbad Beach, north of San Diego.

Who knows how long he has stood here.... keeping watch over the beach below.

But I bet it has been a very, very long time.

My current favorite place to get fish and chips is in Carlsbad.... Harbor Fish Cafe.

I drive up there every time I spend a weekend in the San Diego area.

Gnarly Dude is a mile or so, south of the restaurant.... but saying hi to him makes a great excuse for a long along the beach path, before and after lunch.

This was the week that JJ stayed with us.... to go to computer coding camp.

It was part of the deal that he and I made early this year.... when he was disenchanted with school.

Do, well, the job that all kids have.... go to school.

And I would help him find things to do with the rest of his life that were of interest to him and fun.

Computers punch both those tickets for him.... and that is how he ended up at coding camp.

We also found some time one afternoon to go to.... the robotics exhibit at the DMNS.

Here is JJ.... driving a robot in one of the many interactive displays.
