 Got an invite to Newport Beach to attend the opening 

of a new collection of outdoor sculptures.

It is so hot that my friend refused to go outside.

Quite a few folks did brave the 100+ degree weather 

The sculptures are large and memorable.

and were selected after a nationwide contest.

Once the weather cools down I will definitely return to 

the wonderful outdoor sculptures scattered along a rambling walking trail 

next to the new, beautiful Newport Beach Civic Center.

in beautiful southern California!

The photo washes out the green pinstripe of my shirt.

Always love mixing prints with stripes :)

First Weekend of September

I've been home for at least two weeks so it was time to travel...

up to San Francisco to see my girlies

The fresh berry stand along the 101 is a great stop for tasty treats

Unbelievable berry goodness !!

Hello my darling daughter in her new apartment.

Made some new friends; am I that skinny? 

 LOL

Saw some sights,

Saw some cable cars

If you care what my girlies wear to be urban cuties

Chanced upon a super cool pop up store in Union Square 

for Marc Jacob's Daisy perfume

Next day it was off to a Farmers Market for fresh deliciousness

fresh, beautiful flowers

all at Fort Mason on a gorgeous day by the Golden Gate Bridge.

Everyone was very happy, happy, happy at the end of the day,

and for dessert- a nice slice of love!

September comes blazin' in with hot, hot, hot temperatures

and sticky, icky humidity

AND I had to park so far away it was a 25 minute walk to class...

resulting in some fierce blisters on my tootsies :(
