This is a flashback post describing a trip to Monterey, California with Michelle a few years ago. I had to attend a work-related conference there and Michelle joined me.

Apparently, this was one of Michelle’s favorite vacations. A main highlight was the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Other highlights included a few hours in San Francisco, super-fresh-picked strawberries, kayaking on Monterey Bay, tandem biking, driving along the Pacific Coast Highway, and good food. I did attend the conference, really!

Thanks to Annette from New Hampshire

A kind and generous woman in New Hampshire found my lost camera, while she was here visiting Colorado Springs. She tracked me down through Craigslist. Then, returned my camera by mail. She would not even accept financial reimbursement or a reward. Wow! Thanks very much, Annette!
