California dreamin'

Eddie ran his first (last?) marathon in Huntington Beach, CA, with his friend, Chris Aikin. I have to say...California in February beats NYC hands down in the weather category. It wasn't quite beach weather, but we didn't have to wear coats, which was wonderful!




Perfect marathon weather; not perfect beach vacation weather...(Those dots are surfers.)




 3:45:56! Yay!!!

I went to Santa Monica for the day to see my wonderful friend, Neda. Isn't she gorgeous?


We spent an afternoon at the Getty Museum. The campus was built since the last time I was in CA, and it's really impressive.






Bernini is my favorite sculptor:

And how cool is this mosaic made out of marble?

 The cactus garden:


We had a great vacation. It was nice to escape the bustle of the city for awhile. But it's always nice to come home...
