August into September....

We enjoyed Lady Tie Dye (Dianne Brooks) 

annual Woodstock party. This year we 

painted her new car. Yes, this is permanent 

and she is known for her friend painted cars.

great dancing in her back yard to our 

favorite band Rough House.

Definitely a hippy event Cambria style

A lovely walk to the lighthouse

with Michelle, Eden, Lily and Kathy

Lily always finds interesting things

to look at.

A local photographer takes Eden 

under his wing to show her the best photo ops

Eden created some wonderful portraits

that day also.

We enjoyed cookies to celebrate 

Kathy's birthday

The acoustics inside the lighthouse 

were amazing. Lily hummed, Eden sang

 for a magical moment.

Using the old wringer reminded me

of the one my mom used when

I was little. My brother got his arm stuck 

in the wringer once and mom had

to quickly release it using that knob

on the top. No harm done.

My job as a 4 years old was to guide the 

clothes through in the back so that

they did roll back around the rollers.

Its amazing how childhood memories can

be triggered by these old machines.

A good visit with Kelly and Bixby

and of course, a game of cards.

We christened Randy and Mary's new kayak

at Morro Bay. A wonderful day

paddling against the current,

then drifting back.

We found the Althea docked there. 

This is the boat that our neighbors

Margie and Larry sailed around the world.

The Beach Boys concert at Vina Robles. 

This was Mike Love with his son

 and John Stamos. Always good music

to sing along and dance to.

Labor day weekend Sunday is always 

the car show...Nates Car show. 

Nate now lives in Georgia with his daughter

and came back with his son Andre

to be the greeted by many Cambrian friends.

Mike sold t shirts

Chuck makes these wonderful trophies

and stays at our house.

I was impressed at the end when the

Tesla Cyber truck pulled the trailer

with the vw bus on it.

Debby took care of 90 year old Nate

making him sit once in a while.

We hosted a neighborhood bbq 

We have a great neighborhood and 

Nate even got to go around his old 

house with the new owners. 

Andre got creative with the photos.

Nate and Andre marked the visit 

with a photo shoot.

Yesterday my hiking group had a fast, hot 

hike on the Pismo Preserve. We went fast

trying to find the shade!!!!
