We come home from San Diego Wednesday night, and I’ll be so glad to be with my family.  It’s been wonderful being in California, though.  Bernie and I have really enjoyed being with the other couples from MTEMC.  Today, we went to Tijuana, Mexico.  I didn’t like it…it was dirty, there were children begging, and I […]
