It has been a fabulous week here in San Diego...we have paced ourselves and we are not as exhausted as last year in New York City, or the first few days recovering from jet lag. We have taken about 1000 photos so far and have met lots of nice people.  But putting together our photoshow will be a challenge!

What a nice place to visit! The weather here is beautiful....we already visited the zoo, and we heard some worker complain when the temperature went to 80 degrees...( and little humidity) Anyway, it is a little hard to adjust to the three hour time delay...but then comparing this to working at the IRS and USDA, well ...we will somehow manage. See our first photo above!

We are so excited....our first trip to San Diego this week-end and oaur cameras are loaded and primed for action. So stayed tuned for some new photos and photoshow in early September.

These are the last photoshows I will post until we come back from San Diego in early September. But you can view my Air Guard's retiree dinner at Martinsburg, my latest photos from New Orleans, or any of my old photos by clicking on the links on this home page or going to my photoshow page ( go to top left of my home page) and clicking on one of my 50 shows!

Barbara and I took over 150 photos at our annual Martinsburg ANG retirees dinner at Martinsburg on August 11. They had a really funny humor act to entertain the retirees with four WV "hick" performers telling and singing knee slapping jokes. We also had another tour of the renovated (ongoing) base with a huge C-5 parked near the hangar, hosted by Colonel Billy Burkhart, CE. Soon to retire, Col Gain also gave a nice slide show on the base renovations and Space A travel. And the dinner was just delicious. Click on the link above to see the photoshow! Special humor section at end too!

It's time for my annual trek to Martinsburg to see my fellow Air Guard retirees at our annual dinner on August 11. Hopefully I will get some more photos and do another show before I leave for San Diego in late August. Also take a look at my recent New Orleans photoshow if you are a military vet. I got some new photos of the D-Day museum including live swing dancers below a "flying" C-47.

I just finished a week of "fun filled" classroom work in New Orleans. However, I did come a day early to see the D-Day Museum and take another Swamp Tour with the alligators.   The Canal Street photos were taken on the 41st Floor of the Marriott New Orleans, the hotel that I stayed at from July 29-August 3. The last dozen pictures are my typical faceonbody humor. So enjoy!!
