I'm sure your dad is loving having you nearby for awhile—nice patio you made for him! Will he be caravanning with you when you leave in July?

When I saw your comment and realized I hadn't seen you for a while I went back to see if I'd missed your posts and apparently just posted on one that I'd already posted on. Too funny that I didn't remember it especially since I found it so interesting this time too. Oh well........ Wonder of you both to help our your dad in this difficult time. The low maintenance garden seems a really good idea. Glad it was easier than you thought. Wish every town had a go to book for suggesting hikes. Thanks for the name of the one you use. Not sure we'll ever make it to San Diego at the rate we are going but if we do, we'll be prepared. Love the VW trailer. I thought they only made vans.

I will definitely be checking out Afoot and Afield in San Diego County for our visit in January. I miss Coronado a lot...when we were not there with the pups on the beach, we enjoyed strolling the neighborhoods as well. It's so colorful with old and new mixed together...a photographers delight! <br /><br />Glad to read all is good with you and Hans.
