Holiday weekend population at my place is 3. Apparently other households are having guests over too. Yesterday at the beach, I must have seen a dozen people. And with fallout from the demoic acid continuing, there were a dozen dead birds, two dead sea lions, and one sea lion cordoned off waiting for rescue.
It's still paradise.
But for the dead, not so much.
And we have bars in paradise. I love bars.
I especially love bars with music. The night before last we went to see one of my favorite musicians at a beach neighborhood bar so tiny it appears to have been built in someone's garage. A guy we dubbed "the tornado" blew in about half-way through our evening. He entered as if he was wearing those shoes with retractable wheels you see adolescents gliding around in. He danced his way to the dance floor after a quick word with the bartender. The next thing you know, everyone in the bar had a fresh drink. The Tornado danced. The Tornado knuckle-bumped quite a few of us. And then he blew out again.
This morning he was at the farmer's market looking fresh as a daisy.
So I'm back, enjoying life in Margaritaville.
How are you?

Oh, I'm ok. A bit tired in heart and soul and body, but I'm thinking it'll pass and I'll feel energized again. Your pictures are gorgeous. I miss you.
