Dixie & Mark

Recorded April 14, 2022


On January 24th Dixie and Mark arrived. They used to always work a visit in with us when they had to attend a concrete conference in Las Vegas during January but this year they didn’t have a conference and it was just a visit to see her brother and to enjoy a subtropical environment. We decided that this time we wouldn’t just stay in the house and visit but we’d get outside and see some things.

The first day we went to Torrey Pines beach but Dixie had recently had surgery so we kept the hiking to a minimum and just enjoyed a beautiful view and the sunset.

Tuesday we went to LaJolla Cove and saw the Sea Lions and everything else there is to do in that beautiful area. 


We then decided to go visit the Midway Museum. We could have spent a lot more time at the Midway but as we were leaving someone told us that since we were later in the day we could come back the next morning for free. Lisa had school but that worked great for Dixie, Mark and I.

We then decided to check out the Hotel Del and once were there we were googling a good place to have a nice dinner with a beautiful atmosphere. 

We decided on a place and then googled where it was. It said it was 500 feet away. I looked up and there it was right across the street from where we were parked. We had a lovely dinner at the Blue Water Boat House.

The next morning Lisa went back to work and Dixie, Mark and I headed back to the Midway. Finally it was time to say goodbye to them and I headed back to the real world.

Before I go though I have to share this picture of Lisa getting ready to take off from the Midway aircraft carrier.
