(This is last Sunday's post that was waiting for picts.) So this week I have been trying more consciously to exercise and enjoy Southern California before head to the frozen north. Fortunately, the waves has also been cooperating and I had several good days of surf. Friday morning was actually well overhead with lots of huge backside closeout barrels. Also body surfed Crystal cove wednesday evening while M and G played in the shorebreak. Miriam is getting to be a pretty good boogie boarder although she won't go further than 10 feet or so from shore. We went to the beach Sat. morning as well. Smaller, but still fun. I spent another 3 hours fixing my kayak. I had the fan on the whole time, so I felt a lot less whacked from the chemicals. Bekah and I went on a date and got sushi and walked around Corona del Mar. I have also made some progress on the dissertation, although not as much as I would like. I am reading Foucault and Bourdieu and I have found a bit that will be useful, but I am not sure how much I need to read to really use their ideas. The kids got a huge box and after two days of playing in the packing peanuts, we made a house out of it. They just finished swimming lesson and Gwyn is pretty good.

I think you'll love the frozen north if you have the right wetsuit/clothes and boots. (But what do I know?) The pictures add so much. Beautiful girls must be documented. When will I see you next? (Love you more than the ocean.)
those are beautiful girls. glad you are having fun your last couple months of california. good luck with the dissertation. i was very impressed with Gwyn's swimming when I was there, and i am sure she is even more impressive now.
