More rain, more gray…will it ever end? Of course, it will but when? Last week, the high winds took out our power at home so we escaped to San Francisco for the day. Luckily, we had a brief, much-welcomed break in the weather and made the most of it. It was too gorgeous not to …
Bleary-eyed, I arrived home at 6:15 AM after dropping off Jamie at the airport at 5 AM. I actually live only 10 minutes from the airport. Are you wondering is California traffic that bad?
