No Knitting tonight!

Just a few pics!

Yesterday, Lil Emp and I took a walk to the beach!

He played in the sand and this was our view...
Kinda dumb that we don't walk down that way often, huh? Would you believe it really is about a 15 minute walk from our home?

And my dear bud, brought me out for a belated birthday dinner to the House of Prime Rib! A classic, but I must say, veeeerrrry bad on the WW program! I mean, I'm supposed to have 'rehearsed' going there, what I'd order and what I'd do...but guess what?

There was no rehearsing! Only a Tenessee Tea (Jack Daniels, Amaretto and Pineapple Juice) and wine on top of -what else?-PRlME RIB! Seconds on the creamed spinach-no seconds on the meat!
But come on-with an atmosphere like this? How could I resist?!

Belated Happy Birthday, Leslie. Little Emp looks adorable in the sand, a veritable happy camper!

That is one gorgeous view!! Gotta love it when the fog isn't in! And I figure the walk to the beach and back helps with the splurge at dinner, right? :)

Big hugs!!

You can walk to the beach?! Oh man, I'm jealous. And that view, too! wow.

Yeah, but that view is tempered by icy cold water w/a vicious undertow. But still, a great view when the sun's out.

You crack me up w/the camera pics.

An excellent substitution for knitting. Love that view.

A life in which you cannot have lovely steak dinners is not a life worth living. Also, doughnuts, french fries, and beef jerky.

I'm off to have a popsicle, thanks a lot. ~_^

I used to live even closer to the beach when I was in Newport Beach. Oh how I miss that place.

Looks like you had a very nice time with your little guy at the beach and then later w/the prime rib din din:)
