SD: This Town Is (Becoming) Our Town

[mlerules]

Another really good day in SD w/delerium3, even w/out visiting any of the three (3) Erics or Danno. Enjoyed Balboa Park in the afternoon and into the eve (nice clouds at sunset): lovely plants (looking & smelling), a great sax player providing soundtrack, tasty warming tortilla soup & cafe mocha (bittersweet - yum) at the Prado - apparently bedhead's in for men's hair these days, a nice exercisey walk around various bits including the neato archery range. Afterwards got together w/redefining_self for our trad'l dinner at The Field in the Gaslamp District. Really nice seeing him again...it'd been a while. Hopefully not such a long time 'tween visits this next time! [Mouse House!]

WayBack Highlights: The human Lipazanner (sp) loping slowly across the street, CalTrans steam cleaning the freeway (perhaps as prep for welding the freeway - great profusions of sparks from this work in a couple different locations), the realization that somebody needs to update the DK's California Uber Alles to reflect that Arnie's the Governator, the Wrinke In Time that occured coming home: we were in Mission Viejo...and then we were home.

Should be feeling more exhausted. Off to shower, then to sleep. Feeling better than I have in...hell, feeling pretty damned good right now...my downishnesses just don't last very long (even if'n they're intense when they hit).

P.S. aka EDIT: Tried less-than-sign backslash lj-cat greater-than-sign, but nothing happened.

P.P.S. aka EDIT2: Last night we also roamed the seafront, checking out the Maritime Museum (w/five (5 - count 'em) coo-el sea-going vessels to explore). Now must find a kind (and technologically proficient) soul to make a DigiPic into an LJ icon for me.

It was such a great night. Additional plus - I hadn't been to the Field in quite some time.

Got home too late to mention it to Amy but I'll run it past her today. Still not sure what her opinion will be. I'm sure I can come up on Monday for the day but may not be able to make it up on Sunday night.

If need be, we can meet at D-land - less driving for you this way. Also, EACH of us has FREE D-land parking capability w/our passes, so if'n we plan to meet somewhere close-by (mebbe the turn-around/drop-off for the Conv Center across the street from Mouse House), you can take E and both of our cars get in for FREE. Fingers crossed!
