This morning after having breakfast we came back to the apartment and read the paper. Then we drove to the Kaiser Clinic here in Carlsbad and I picked up a refilled prescription. The sun was out and the ocean looked beautiful. So, on our way back to the apartment we stopped at the beach at Tamarack and found a parking place about half way down the beach row. We got out and walked along the seawall, about 2\3 of the way to the next life guard station. I had to rest a couple of times, because I came with just a cane to help me walk. The waves were good, and the surfers were really having a ball. The beach sand was dotted with people sunning and children playing in the sand. It was great to see, reminding me of other times when we watched you,our own children, playing at the beach and learning to handle yourselves in the water. We got home in time for lunch, and then we spent the afternoon in the apartment. At dinner we meet a new woman , who was formerly in the army and was a driver for General Eisenhower (sp?) during the war. This lady is tall , straight and thin, she must have been a real beauty then. Maybe we can talk to her again sometime.
