Weekend Recap/Blog Intro

So. This is the "Move the Tresslers Across the Country" blog. I'll be adding stats, sights, stories, and other random information about our trip to this site! (Yay!)

This weekend was a lot of fun:
Thursday night I got into San Diego at about 11pm local time, so we didn't do much apart from sleep.

Friday we decided we needed to get out of the beach house. We took a little stroll down the sandy shores, and later went mini-golfing (I won, of course). While at the putt-putt course, we noticed a game store on the top of the hill, and decided that we needed something to keep us occupied in the hotels at night (other than reading the titles of the adult movies on the pay-per-view).  We got a few card games that supplied the amusement for the rest of the night (including, of course, the obligatory pirate game).

Saturday we looked at some puppies at a pet store, but had to leave because they were "just too cute." We also said our goodbyes to the wonderful world of In-n-Out burgers.  That night, we had reservations for a nice rooftop restaurant in La Jolla. It was delicious, but we were almost the only ones there because it was 60 degrees with winds that could carry away small children.

Today, we finished up the last of the leftovers in the fridge, and did some laundry (real exciting, I know). We just got back from a hibachi restaurant that was great (although it's slightly distressing when your chef has a recently sewn-up finger wrapped in saran-wrap...).  April and Bisous just left for the airport to go get Jess. Tomorrow, the adventure begins!!!

Well, I better get going to the general store to buy our oxen and replacement axels (first of many Oregon Trail comparisons...).  I'll write again tomorrow, when I actually have something cool to tell you.

See you then!

Unfortunately, we don't seem to have the right cables to attach any of our cameras to the computer:(

May I suggest when you find civilizationn again you find a Staples or Office Max and get a $10 usb card reader.

Sounds like you discovered yesterday that cow butts still stink and not just in the midwest!! We had snow yesterday and rain today so even no civilization but warmer temps sound good to us. Isn't that pathetic?
I'm totally jealous of whichever side of the car went past the big cow farm. Cemeteries must now be avoided at all cost. Hope you're not traveling through death valley today!
