Santa Cruz Adventure

We left Vancouver for Santa Cruz on May 27th on our way to house- and dog-sit for Kenny and Christine who were leaving for Europe on the 31st. Left BC in the rain and were in sunny Yreka in the late afternoon. Made our way to Santa Cruz the next day. The first week or so was quite cool with fog in the mornings but there has been a great improvement in the second week. We're keeping in shape walking Ziggy, seeing some of the sights, doing a bit of shopping, trying some of the restaurants recommended by Kenny for lunches, enjoying the Netflix movies which come in the mail every few days, doing a little gardening and thoroughly enjoying our stay in the area.


We drove Kenny and Christine to a hotel near the airport on the eve of their departure. Well, Kenny drove in and got stopped by the police for driving over a curb!!! - Stan drove back within incident.

I never saw such large artichokes - 3 for $1 at the very big swap meet held here every weekend.

And now, Ziggy in his many poses





A moment of inattention on our part and a door left open!






Tuckered out, finally!
