Swimming with Sharks
August 14, 2009



So we took some time off on Wednesday (thx for the holiday present Mer) to visit some of nature’s beauty in our own backyard – La Jolla Cove.
We kayaked off La Jolla Shores beach to The Caves, snorkeled with sea lions, various bass, mackeral & baitfish and bright orange Garibaldi. Then we cruised back into shore, hiked down the beach, waded out a tad and swam with Leopard sharks. Very cool.
The Leopards were beautiful. Spotted, 4-5′ in length and looking for Mer. They swam thru us and around us – vy docile. The water was a little murky, but they were within a cpl of feet. Very cool. We felt like we could reach out & touch them. They actually brushed by us a cpl of times. We also saw rays and guitarfish squirming along the bottom.
Erin & Johnny’s Wedding
August 11, 2009
What a beautiful night on the bay at Admiral Kidd Club. Saturday night rocked from the close of the ceremony to Queen’s “You’re My Best Friend” to the evening ending “I’ve Gotta Feeling” by the Black Eyed Peas.
Pastor Clark VanWick was witty and warm. Photographer Heidi Schawel was a pleasure to work with again and I’m sure she rocked out the pix. Day-of coordinator Richelle Coto was a big help. We all worked well together!
The energy in the room was evident from the entrance of the bridal party. You knew it was gonna rock. Italian meets Latin meets retro 80′s meets hip-hop meets a few oldies and on and on…..Michael Jackson was a hit to say the least!
Erin and Johnny were a great couple and their friends and family rocked it, too. Lots of great requests on the night. It was a pleasure!!
