In the meantime, although we love and miss our native California, here's the reason I don't live there anymore.

That's the bumper to bumper, barely moving an inch, traffic on southbound Interstate 5, just past the Camino Las Ramblas/Pacific Coast Highway exit in Dana Point. That's at 2:30 p.m. on a Saturday. Is there ever not traffic there anymore?
But there was some fun during our travels south to NCSD. We stopped at the Irvine Spectrum for lunch. Z-Dub had an opportunity to play in the fountains with some kids and ride a carousel and giant ferris wheel. He had a blast. Of course, we already miss him as we're in a quiet house, packing and preparing for our early morning departure. I think tonight is going to be tough.
