Lauren and I spent last night in Oceanside, in an RCI-exchanged condo. It's a mini vacation for us, one that we'll repeat two more times this week. We have the condo until next Sunday morning.

We're having more rain and snow storms in California this week, so it really wasn't a good time to take this little out-of-the-routine speed bump, but we did get a little break in the weather this morning and took a little walk on the beach. One of the first things we noticed as we left the condo was the sign in the picture above. We're not sure what the message really is. Is the point to tell us DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT THROWING YOUR TRASH IN MY CANS? Maybe it just means that if I have trash, I'd better throw it in those cans and not on the street. We weren't sure, but no matter what, we figured we'd better just keep our trash in our pockets until we found a place we knew would be OK for its disposal!

On the drive home, we got another chuckle when a newscaster on the radio told us she was going to give us some true facts! Hmmmmm! That's food for thought!

We're going back to Oceanside Wednesday night after Lauren gets off from work, and Thursday morning is supposed to be a much nicer morning. If it is, we'll be up before dawn, and we'll walk to the pier and back, at least. We're only 1-1/2 blocks from the beach. How convenient!

We'll come home on Friday morning and then go back on Saturday afternoon.

Mini vacations are fun. They are out of the ordinary, and they shake up the routine enough that we feel refreshed when we go back to it. And the ocean is so nice - even when the weather isn't quite the best. I took a couple pictures of the water this morning. Click the picture at the top of the page to go to Flickr, and then go to my San Diego County / Around San Diego set.
