....from sunny, beautiful Half Moon Bay CA! (I'm actually in sunny, not-quite-so-beautiful San Jose) but the pictures were taken during my visit to RINDA yesterday!
ZOOMING OUT
After the drive through some jaw-droppingly beautiful scenery, I arrived at Rinda's lovely home (with grateful thanks to my SatNav lady!); I was greeted by Gypsy ( smaller than I imagined!) and then Aria (bigger than I imagined!) ....then we admired Paul's handiwork on the new chicken coop....it's pretty impressive I can tell you.
The area in which Rinda lives is REALLY pretty, and we headed off to do some sightseeing. The beach was the first port of call, and Rinda pointed out this huge piece of driftwood
ZOOMING IN
Rinda then suggested I look more closely at the piece.....
......and there were several carvings on it, including these seals and the dolphin!....a perfect candidate for ZIZO I thought.
Rinda and I then went on to do a little shopping , followed by lunch...and, of course the obligatory photograph of the two of us together...just so that you believe I was actually THERE!
Tomorrow I am off to meet DEB...I'm sure there will be more pics to follow :)
Hoping you are having a good weekend and that all is well with you and yours
Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
Alison xx
