San Luis River Bike Trail

We took a nice afternoon bike ride on the San Luis Rey Bike Path in Oceanside, Ca. This is a nice, flat ~7 mile ride from the near the San Luis Rey Mission to Oceanside beach. What I really liked was the absence of cars...exclusively for bikes, skates, and pedestrians. There's parking at most of the cross streets. We parked where the trail crosses Douglas Drive.

JCO enjoyed the ride from his trailer. His comment after the ride: "Estoy cansado" (I'm tired)...perhaps from watching me pedal :)

Sopa de Zanahorias


After weeks of patiently planting, watering, weeding, thinning his carrot plants, JCO finally reaps a bountiful harvest. Time for sopa de zanahorias (carrot soup)!


Ingredients: Carrots, celery, onions, garlic, chicken stock, bay leaves, cumin, salt and pepper and a blender. Yummy!

Breakwater at La Jolla Cove


Some images I'm thinking about sharing for our next photoclub theme: La Jolla. I spent a little time shooting before work at the La Jolla Cove before work on an overcast morning.
