ALL IT TAKES IS A GRANDCHILD

TO GET YOU MOVING.

SYDNEY ASKED IF WE WOULD GIVE HER A RIDE DOWN SOUTH  SO SHE COULD SPEND A FEW DAYS CAMP AT A COLLEGE, AND EXPERIENCE WHAT IT HAD TO OFFER IN ACADEMICS AND WATER POLO.  HOW CAN YOU SAY NO TO SEVEN HOURS, IN A CAR, OF ONE ON ONE TIME WITH A TEENAGE GRANDCHILD.  WITH THEIR BUSY SCHEDULES, THAT IS PRETTY SPECIAL.  

AFTER A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP, WE LEFT HER AT THE SCHOOL, VISITING WITH SOME OF THE OTHER WATER POLO GIRLS THAT WOULD BE SHARING THE SAME HOUSING.  I THINK SYD PUT A SPELL ON MY CAMERA, BECAUSE IT REFUSED TO TURN ON, SO NO PICTURE :)

WE TOOK THE COASTAL ROUTE HOME, SPENDING THE NIGHT IN SAN LUIS OBISPO, ARRIVING AT THE EMBASSY SUITES JUST IN TIME FOR THE HAPPY HOUR.

SINCE OUR LAST VISIT, THEY HAVE REALLY
UPDATED THEIR HAPPY HOUR SNACKS.
CAN YOU TELL HOW MUCH WE ENJOYED THEM?
THIS MORNING WE WERE
EQUALLY AS HAPPY WITH OUR FREE BREAKFAST.
(YOU'VE GOT TO LOVE EMBASSY SUITES)
DID A LITTLE SHOPPING,
AND HEADED DOWN THE HIGHWAY.


WE WERE ON OUR WAY TO WATCH ROXY
SWIM THE 500  (20 LAPS OF THE POOL)
IN HER LAST SWIM MEET AS A
SANTA CRUZ THRESHER.

SWIM ON ROXY,
AND ENJOY YOUR NEXT ADVENTURE
OF WATER POLO, AND SWIMMING
IN HIGH SCHOOL.

GRANDCHILDREN,
AREN'T THEY WONDERFUL!
THEY KEEP YOU GOING.
