California... definitely different. The weather is nice. Very nice. It is colder than I thought it would be, but the people are nice. The cost of living is out the ass. But for $1700/month, I have use of a gym from 9am until 10pm.

The time difference is whipping my ass, but I am starting to recover. The cup is half-full. :-) My job is going great. I love it. Learning tons of new stuff.

I have seen several commercials being filmed and have made my first venture to the beach. It is absolutely beautiful!!!! This picture is my kids frolicking on the beach. The ocean is amazing. We weren't very experienced on our first time. So, we have now each gotten some sandals and some beach towels and blankets. We have also gotten a gallon of water for our trunk to wash our feet and I guess we will play the rest by ear.

I have lost 2 pounds in California. So, I will have pre-cali picts and post cali pictures.
