Took a road trip yesterday, up to Mission Viejo, Laguna Hills, Laguna Beach and Newport Beach.  It is beautiful. It was unseasonably warm and a great day for a drive. Newport was by far cooler than I expected, a bigger, funner version of Pacific Beach.

I don’t know what it is about it here. I heard things and assumed I’d just hate California and the life and the people and etc. It’s nothing like that. It’s gorgeous and everyone’s happy and working out and loving life. I feel like it’s such a good fit. I feel more myself than I ever have. Of course, since MK wants his 40 acres, we might not afford some of these places. It’s outrageous as ever here. I’m just going to enjoy it while I’ve got it.

We did discuss 6 months in another beach town here.
