Computer Instructor Wainscott


I recently took a new job as a computer instructor at Santa Fe Elementary School within the Solana Beach School system. I am very excited to be a part of another great school. I am very luck to have a brand new computer lab filled with Mac computers. Anyone who has any great computer lessons k-6, please pass them on!

Ouch!!


I have been having a great time on the different team challenge runs; however this Saturday's run was a little more painful than most. I had a good 6 mile run, but about twenty minutes after finishing I passed out!!! I smacked my head on the concrete and caused some damage. Everyone on the team was really kind and helped to clean me up. I will have to come up with some entertaining story to tell everyone on Monday since I am sure to have some bruising and scarring.

Team Challenge


JP and I along with the rest of the group on one of our early Saturday morning runs as a part of Team Challenge. We are luck enough to have two team coaches and a great group of people to run with. The bonus is the multi-million dollars homes and beautiful oceanviews along our 5+ mile runs.

Enjoying Labor Day




JP and I enjoy a great BBQ at a friend's house in Rancho Bernardo,CA. It is a beautiful location with amazing views. We splashed around in the pool and grilled out while basking in the warm southern California sunshine. As you can see they picked out a special pair of goggles for JP!!!

Mexico Street


In order to reach the natural blow hole you had to walk down this crazy street market. It was full of venders selling strangely enough the same items, handbags, statues of turtles, t-shirts, and different types of food. We decided to eat a churro as a quick snack; we couldn't believe the size of just one order.

Mexico




JP and I decided to brave a trip to Mexico over the holiday weekend. It was an experience... We drove down scenic route 1 to La Bufadora in Ensenada, Baja California. It is a beautiful spot with a natural blow hole. The drive down the coast was lovely, but it was unsual. We saw several odd things including a giantic Jesus , an armless inline skater, a little person, a police stop with machine guns, several stray dogs just to name a few strange things. It was a good to make the trip outside the US even if it just made me be grateful to be home.
