Escaping the Heat and Ash!



The Jeff Risser Clan are okay and the Station Fire only seems to be blowing ash on them. Los Angeles has definitely returned to hot summers. It's been so ridiculously cool in Santa Monica this season it didn't even seem like summer. But alas, it's all come to an end. I invited Mom to escape the Santa Clarita heat and have dinner on the beach with me Saturday. Michele called later and I extended the invite to them as well. I was delighted they accepted. Here are a few pictures from the day. Is this not a cute family or what???

This morning during my beach run there appeared to be 2 pods of dolphins near the Venice breakwall. They were incredibly active- poking their heads out of the water and looking around, surfing waves, jumping out of the water so you could see their entire body and one flipped! It was incredible- so much so that I actually stopped running, sat down and watched. What a show and you couldn't beat the price of admission.

I love a good spontaneous adventure, and what a wonderful way to escape the heat :) & I agree, that is one cute family!

You are a dear and so generous. The picnic was territic and the temperatures were perfect, making the walk on the beach a real energy booster - which I needed! Thank you for a relaxing and wonderful time. I love you lots!
