Weekends are fun

On Friday afternoon, we were both pretty fried from an overly stressful week.  So we hopped in the car and drove to Monterey.  Traffic was bad but as soon as we got past I-5, things got better.  The weather was gorgeous and because we were there late enough, the crowds had gone away.  We drove 17 Mile Drive and watched the sunset over Bird Rock.  It was gorgeous.  We walked on the beach at Asilomar and I think Rob truly loves California now. 

We got home late Friday and slept really late on Saturday.  After puttering around, we finally broke out the BBQ and got it cleaned up for the summer.  I found an awesome grilled chicken recipe and we had a great early dinner on the patio.  I cannot wait for summer to be here so we can relax and do that all the time. 

Yesterday, we ran errands.  Mostly browsing for stuff for the backyard.  We are thinking of putting in a fountain or some type of water feature back there so we went to the water garden place north of town and wandered around.  We found something we like but it’s a matter of the money now.  We stopped at the nursery on the way home and got some new plants for the pots on the front porch.
