San Diego Trip - June 2025

Yet another trip to SD
  • Stayed in OB - I have never spent much time in OB but it was pretty fun; lots of hipsters and hippies with an everlasting odor of pot but it was fun to spend a few days there
  • I walked home from work one afternoon and it was very pleasant along Sunset Cliffs
  • Met with Jaya and Noah to start planning their wedding
  • Dinners at Hofmeister, Et Voila and OB street fair
  • Work meeting at Point Loma mini golf and Old Town Tequila Factory
  • The Santa Fe was having some wobble on the drive out so we took it OB Tire since I thought it might be a balance issue - they found one of the hubs was worn and replaced it - I highly recommend OB Tire

More Nukes!

I am glad to see the resurgence of nuclear power in this country.  California made a big mistake shutting down all their plants.

Old School Blogging

This blog has been going for almost 20 years now.  It seems that most of the original blogosphere has migrated to other platforms over the years, Facebook, Medium, YouTube, Substack, etc.  Lately, I have been searching old blogs and new to see how many are still ticking.  I have discovered a few that aren't just news feeds and have a good mix of personal, tech and current events.
