Our trip to see Paige, Justin and John
We left on Saturday, Nov 3rd. James, Jeannie and I flew to Sacramento. We saw Justin and Paige's new home. We did some wine tasting and other site seeing. We watched the Packer game at Justin's and Paige's and got to get to know their two special pugs. On Monday, James Jeannie and I traveled down the coast from Monterey to The Big Sur to San Luis Obispo. From there we continued on to Santa Barbara and Malibu. We met up with John on Tuesday evening. We stayed at a hotel on the Sunset Strip. John took us to Cha Cha Chas for dinner one night and downtown LA a second night. We had some great times with John and enjoyed our time in L.A. It was a fun vacation. We missed our "Jacie" who had to stay in Wisconsin to teach. It was nice to get back home to see Jacie, Dustin, Mox and Champ.
