It seems liike we have been here for a week or so, though it's only been 4 days. The day breaks with some fog and the house we are sitting is about 60 degrees in the morning. The sun is starting to peak from over the hill and the upper windows are starting to catch the rays.
Yesterday we took off to a winery with a lot of scultures. Had a bottle of wine on the grounds, there are three of us, so not too out of shape for the drive back. The winery was in Paso Robles, about 40 minutes from here.
We are going to go back to Moon Stone beach today. Lots of drift wood, small amounts of small stones and a boardwalk if you don't want to get down on the sand.
We talked to some locals the last time at the beach and we are going to join them at the art class on Thursday. This is in the building in front of the PB courts, so I'll probably drop in on those again.
I miss the exercise right now, there is too much sitting around. I worry for my waistline.
Speaking of art, I wanted to do some pencil sketching on this trip. I'm interested in shadow and perspective, as anyone would be. And I wanted to take some time to look at the details involved and see what I could "see" for the first time.
Here is a view from the house:
The arm is not getting much better, but it's not getting worse either. I've got a hand weight that I'm using for exercize of the forearm muscles and connective parts. I'm not the only player with some of these aches and pains. There are a lot of advice on YouTube, some of it might even be of help. It is not unusual, per those videos, that this kind of pain is lingering. I may have to become a forehand specialist -- I guess I can live with that shame if I have to. :-)
I think that's about it from here. There are no cell phone services here, but I can see the Whatsapp, so I see that the normal things are happening at the various tri-valley parks.
Remember, when in doubt, dink!
