Well I have some catching up to do. I still have 4 or 5 trips to report on. It seemed like even though I have done some very fun things this year like visit everyone but Jarom. I have seen him several times going and coming and hounding him on dating that it was time to plan a trip for the sole purpose of playing with no events dates. (I am trying to say I usually do things when invited or there is a deadline to make--you all know me well enough to know that is true). Why do I make a big deal of this because actually I am quite proud of myself for pulling this little trip off. I told Jarom that we need a play day soon and what do you suggest. He said what about Cata
lina Island so i booked resevations for the only day he and I could go 
-- Friday 29th of Aug. It was a delightful day with no commitments, no deadlines, no have to do this or do that just roll with the flippin punches!! I did take the opportunity to visit Denny Thur afternoon since Jarom worked until 10 pm. Visiting Denny was fortutious since he just developed a new product especially for corn and is 10x
better than all the others combined. He shipped me a pallet which I may have to return from Guadalajara (which BTW is where I am writing this from). We got up about 6 am fri. to make 8:30 ferry boat (hi speed jet catamaran behind jarom). That boat ride was fun in and of itself. It is a triple decker with inside or completely outside decks. It makes about 6-7 one hour trips all day long. Four different ports service th
e island so there were tons of people but not really crowded. That is the Queen mary behind me top left. Top right is the Avalon Bay on Catalina. I met people from Iran, Japan, Europe somewhere by volunteering to take their picture so all could be in picture.

I met people from Iran, Japan, Europe somewhere by volunteering to take their picture so all could be in picture. When we got there we rented bikes and rode all over the place and found the good spots to do things later like snorkeling. There is a big historic Casino Theater. I found out much fun riding a bike is but that I could not do any hill what so ever. I am sure my heart max out the heart rate several times. I wasn't the only one tired Jarom had to reat on a tree trunk. I will add some pics taken with a disposable underwater camera that are very grainy but still pretty good considering. That is Gold Garibaldy fish. I took my Canon elph pocket camera but I didn't want Jarom to risk damage or loosing his. A person could do this trip several times and find different situations. Right now they have extended the deer hunting because of excess deer due to feed situations. since it is a closed environment they monitor everything completely. So if any
one is interested in hunting I can get you information. It would be a cool hunt. I the island is only 3-4 miles long but total mountains. No escape though so if there is a deer there you will see it and you will get it.

e island makes everything close and compact. I tried to get into my wetsuit but could not pull it on. I had to grin and bear the cold water. Ten feet out the floor drops and seaweed starts. The fish are so used to folks that they were everywhere. It was pretty cool. I mean with in 50 feet we had beach, deep water, boats anchored, snorkleing, sea-doos, swimming, jagged rocks at a bluff and open water.
