These photos seem to be out of order but we had a fantastic visit to SoCal to visit Dad and Joanne and spend time with cousins. We crammed in a large amount of activities and shuttled to and fro in our 15 seater rented Turo passenger van! It was awesome.

| Shohei Ohtani of the LA Angels, #17, pitcher and Designated hitter phenom. He also managed to steal a base during this game. I think he pitched for 7 innings and I can't remember a more enjoyable baseball game I have been to. |

| Bought binoculars for $19.99 at Harbor Freight Chino Hills for the occasion |
 |
| Joshua tree - 1.5 hours away - was worth the drive. The rock formations were like sandstone and the cactus/Joshua Trees were really neat to see. The kids loved climbing over the boulders. |

| Cabazon outlets had almost everything you could possibly imagine. Boys were somewhat bored but didn't complain at all and entertained themselves with the mosquito bite extractor. |
 |
| Bargain of the decade in the form of a $1.11 raincoat from the North Face for Christian. A combination of a sale item, additional 60% off, and then using my $20 North Face XPLR credit. Even the cashier said he'd never seen something like this before. haha. |
