Archstone

Today was a GREAT day...I was able to get quite a bit accomplished, but still feel like I didn't do anything. I was able to fill out an application and secure a job out here in San Diego. I'll be working for an agency again and looking forward to meeting new people at work. I do miss all my friends back home from work - so many fun memories.

Then this afternoon, I went to the APPLE store and was schooled on how to use the MAC. I'm loving the opportunity of Apple One to One. I'm realizing I have lots to learn from them. I'm thankful they put up with all my questions. I'm liking all the shortcuts I learned today too.

So on my way home, I took a picture of this entrance to our apartment complex. I'm so thankful that Tim chose these apartments...they are in such a convenient part of town. They are close to The 5, UCSD campus, & The Beach. We are also in walking distance from Trader Joes, Whole Foods, Starbucks, Chipotle, BJ's, & A fresh produce market stand (that I LOVE). I'm becoming a daily customer at this stand. It's the best! ANYWAY, all that to say - Good Choice Tim~!

I did take many other pictures today, some of which I think are much better than this one, but this one is a memory. Tim & I went down to the beach again tonight to watch the sunset. So amazing to me to see the waves crashing, the sea lions hanging out on a rock, the seals hanging out on a beach, the sun setting, photographers with their tripods capturing breath taking scenes, & couples walking hand in hand enjoying the beach.

La Jolla Shores Cove

Today, Tim & I went to La Jolla Shores Cove to watch the sunset...It was beautiful to say the least. I think God has some pretty amazing things planned for us, and I'm looking forward to catching them with the camera...I tried doing a 365 craft project last year, which was a bit unsuccessful, but am going to try again with a 365 Picture project. My goal is going to be to take one picture a day to journal our adventure. I love you Tim Cash and look forward to the plans that God has for us~!
