San Diego, December 2008
The day after Christmas we loaded up at 4:00 am to drive to San Diego with our oldest granddaughter. It was the worst road conditions I have ever driven in. We had snow/icepack clear to St. George. In the 40 years of driving that route I have never seen it that bad. We lucked out part of the way by following 5 snow plows. It was snowing and blowing.

But after 14 hours we finally made it to our sunny destination. We stayed in what they call Little Italy at the Porta Vista Hotel. Great place and view of the harbor. Sea World was a blast and Balboa Park wonderful. The sun shone every day we were there. I have to say I have the best grandkids in the world. At 14 some kids are pretty scary but not our girl. I enjoyed getting to know her better and talking to her. She found out some stuff about us to. Grandma has a potty mouth I am trying hard to fix. Sorry girlfriend. I'm working on it.
