Labor Day at the beach

Just returned to California after a long Labor Day weekend at the beach. Florida Gulf Coast beaches are absolutely great for kids! No big waves to knock a toddler down. Water as warm as a bath tub (87 degrees F) And daily showers to cool things down just when they are getting a little too warm. My wife had ordered up a "hot" vacation at a Florida beach and that is what she got. I think she was in the water about 9 hours on Sunday!

Meanwhile, back in California, they have been having a heat emergency with triple digit temperatures and people dying in their non-air-conditioned apartments! It was great to be home for a few days. Now it is back to work with a vengeance!
