I'm Back!

I'm back from a wonderful trip. This lovely orchid was photographed on the trip. I'm a huge fan of orchids. So happy I can grow them in my garden!

My first stop was San Diego for Simply Music Symposium. My colleague from here and I flew together, arriving late at night. After a good long sleep, we spent the daytime hours at Balboa Park. We did pretty well, I think, using public transit. We stayed in Old Town, and there is a transit center just a few blocks from the hotel so it was very convenient. The security people at the transit station were very helpful with their instructions on how to get to Balboa Park, and how to get back home.

We wandered around the park, enjoying the beautiful buildings and the buskers. There were many scattered throughout the park. We started out in the succulent garden, but we're lured across the park by the carillon. It was a music-filled afternoon.

More on my trip in future posts.

Heading Out

I've been very absent here since before the holidays. It was a busy time and I got a lot of work done that needed to be done.

And now I'm headed for San Diego for business. I'm looking forward to 5 days with colleagues, learning and sharing.

Then next week I head to Arizona to visit my brother and sister-in-law. We're planning in visiting the Grand Canyon, which I have never been to.

I'll try to post a few times along the way.
