My blessing, today my daughter was flown in rom Frisco and will drive with me back to the West Coast
Some people count their blessings based on material wealth. I guess there is nothing wrong with that really.For me, I count my blessings with my health (very active at 67, still do 100 push up a day), but most especially the love of my children, and my friends.
I have decided to go back and live permanently in California as I am now fully retired.
I will be very close to all my children and grandchildren and live very modestly and simply. Of course, I still hope to travel the world as I am accustomed to and just smell the roses and enjoy nature which I love very much.
My youngest daughter offered to drive with me and I am more than thrilled with this adventure.
We are leaving today, it takes at least two days before we get back home. I will not be able to baby sit this blog but thanks all for your read and or comment if any.
This was taken in Utah at the salt basin.
On top of the mountain covered with salt.
My poor X5 loaded up to the ying yeng.
My addiction, vegetables.

And that's the Pacific Ocean behind me through the window.

You are getting a little closer to Oregon too.
You left at a good time. The heat index here is over 100+ degrees! Extremely hot!
I hope you are enjoying your trip!
I'm enjoying it my friend.
My children in Southern California, visiting one of best friend in San Diego
Have a safe and enjoyable trip .
My strong daughter. Anchor bay
Retirement has its rewards.
I am still debating if I should get a part time job just to fill in some hours, since I don't have a lot of money to make me able to travel the world non stop as i planned 40 years ago.
Worked here for over 35 years and I still feel very young and strong.
Erm, don't take this wrong, ok - but not a political job? Not in California - I know a lot of Californians, for some reason. They're very forthright!
For right now I will enjoy my time with my children and grandchildren.
lol.. No political job for me Elle. I might be a very active political poster but no way I will consider any job that has something to do with politics. For one thing it is a very serious commitment, the other thing is the effort and energy involved, worst than a regular job. So yes, no politics. Only here in our blogland, for opinion presentation only. Thanks Elle.
My middle daughter and her art. A hobby.
At Lax flying to East Coast to visit relatives.
Enjoy your retirement it's well deserved
Yes. Worked for more than 40 years and now so much time in my hands.
Living with passion every moment.
In the sunny East Coast
Rented a cheap compact car.
Yikes too much time in my hands.
Just bought my ticket for Asia in November. Will be a bit cooler months. Stay until Christmas.
Still finds time to exercise.
Then Asia bound in November.
How long are you staying in Asia?
In central Cali, my oldest daughter has a medium size house but limited backyard.
My youngest daughter lives in nmNorthern California but in an apartment. Big one with only my grand son and her. I prefer to live with her.
I checked out the community garden and it's big and awesome. I submitted my application for next spring.
I'm decided to stay with her and visits my three other children every now and then.
I'll be there in Asia for a month.
