San Clemente

 Hello,
Yesterday we stopped by Dan's parents to give his father his Father's Day socks. 2 pairs no less.  The pics are on Dan's phone, so when I get them from him I'll add them in. 

Last night we had dinner at Ichiiban on the Rocks in Hillcrest on University.  Really good sushi.  We had sushi rolls, tempura, gyoza, beer, ice cream for desert and green tea to wash it all down.  I felt like I rolled out as stuffed as the sushi rolls.  With the happy hour prices it wasn't even expensive.  Good party.

We met the kids in San Clemente for lunch today, also Heather and Ron.  We were at the Beachfire. http://www.beachfire.com  It's a lot of fun.  Local art on the walls. Nice window shopping on Del Mar Ave.  We sat out on the patio in the sun and ocean breezes.  It was really lovely. 
 
Nate came home with us for the weekend.



Then we stopped at the local yarn shop, Strands Knitting Studio.  www.strandsknitting studio.com  Charming, tiny,  little place near the beach.  The owner, Chris,  was nice and let Nate wind my yarn on the swift and Yarn winder.  Five year old's heaven.  They have a nice area with chairs to sit and knit and a toy box for children.    I bought really yummy hand dyed sock yarn, Yukon from Pagewood Farm, in the Meyard Blues colorway. http://www.pagewoodfarm.com/Pagewood%20Farm/about%20our%20yarn.html  This would make a really nice shawl.

Must run, tata.
Julie
