This is Otto. He greets us when we return home to our Cambria digs. After long talks, I've learned that he is terribly lonesome. So, I'm trying to find a buddy to join him. He and Moose do not seem to have much in common. Moose lives for walks. I'm not too sure Otto lives ~ let alone walks. ;-)
Rained all day yesterday ~ one point one inches of the stuff. But today the skies have been washed clean and are as blue as blue can be. Hopefully, we can return to the "state land" and do some serious beach combing. Last time, after the big storm, I found a beautiful intact abalone shell ~ my best yet.
One thing about the rain, the country side is really green. I bought a wild chanterelle mushroom at the farmer's market last Friday. I made a sauce to go on our steak. It was really good if I must say so myself. They are growing wild on the hill sides around the house. But, I don't have the guts to pick them myself. I'm afraid I'd poison my bride and myself. (By the way, you should have seen me trying to spell "chanterelle". Ain't no logic to the way its spelled!) With all this moisture, we have mushrooms growing everywhere.
Hope all is well on the home fronts.
p.s. Congrats to Brandon on his spelling bee success. His mother and I stand in awe of his ability. When I was a kid, I absolutely hated spelling bees. To this day I hate sitting for long periods of time!
