Thanks, John.

We didn't make it to Esterlina the last time we went to Sea Ranch. Hell, we barely made it to Gualala for groceries. Both of us, upon arrival, became amusingly lethargic. We managed to take my Golden to the beach a number of times. I tried for, but missed, what could have been a wonderful photograph of her surfing between a couple of sea lions who came over to check out the funny animal in the water (same shaped heads poking up out of the water - pretty funny). Overall, she was pretty disgusted with me, since I couldn't get my rear off the deck long enough, in her caninic opinion, for sufficient retrieval-dummy-into-ocean tossing.

I've been glued to my office chair much of the rest of the summer, and when not there, out on the golf course. If anyone noticed, the State did a $7.5 billion short-term financing at the end of June to cover the continuing revenue deficit. That was one of my little projects. I'm treating myself with a week of golf in and around St. Andrews in a few weeks.
