Back!

Sorry I didn't post yesterday. Weird schedule. I think I've already talked about California, so instead I'll discuss my second wrock (wizard rock) concert.

I met Alex Carpenter and Jason Munday - among others - and the Blibbering Humdingers were in the audience. They're my favorite. I met some new people not in the bands, too. I don't remember all the songs, but "California Dorks" was awesome as always.

Short post due to short memory. Goodbye!

Love and hugs,
Lewis

California So Far

I am currently in San Francisco, City of the Golden Gates. Yesterday I saw my first wild sea lions and went through Chinatown, which had some awesome sword shops; today we visited Muir Woods and some lighthouse. The former was a lot less silent than it is supposed to be, what with the loud children passing through, but there were some really pretty redwoods. I took several photographs, which ought to speak for themselves if I can put them somewhere - maybe I ought to get an account on a photo-sharing site. We climbed these huge coastal crags covered in scrubby plant life and saw harbor seals at a distance. I like this state so far, other than the ridiculous traffic laws, and I might even consider living here someday. Maybe.

Anyhow, my computer is running really low on juice because the people who built the hotel didn't put in three-hole outlets.

Seeya!

New Destination

I believe I may have mentioned this, but tomorrow I set flight for California. Never before have I been so far west; I have looked forward to going there since I was eleven or so. We are to go to San Francisco, Big Sir, Yosemite, and Monterrey. I hope to see the ocean sunfish at the Monterrey Bay Aquarium: I always wanted to.

There are a couple of wee issues arisen from this excursion: 1) I might not blog as frequently or on time, 2) I prefer not to bring library books across the country, even though they constitute much of my reading, and 3) I won't be able to attend a lot of the filming for the library. But I'll try to make the most of this. It's California! What could go wrong?

You just lost the game.

Love,
Lewis
