Lewis Carroll's famous and inspiring book has been my go to "beach" book of the summer. I probably started reading it in June and we're now stepping into September. That is either a really bad review for Mr. Carroll or says a lot about how rarely I frequent the beach. Yesterday while I was reading I really loved the unique characters introduced on Alice's train ride...
Went to Sunset Beach today with Maria. After a few hours in the sun we headed to Devocean for some yummy acai bowls.
After looking through the latest issue of Cottage Living, I am firm in the type of home I'd like to own when we make millions. I really love the simplicity and charm of a cottage. I thought this one was beautiful. I also really like this bungalow. So someone find Spencer a really great job in Seattle so we can get going on this dream.
Our television went home to its owner yesterday and this is all we have left. It was a rough day. We had a good four months with some really awesome programs. I will surely miss watching...
On Saturday we went down to Waikiki beach with Maria. Spencer and I went for a stroll along the boardwalk to check out the vendors who were prepping for Sunset on the Beach. When we were a few feet from a bike rack I saw a man walk by with a bike seat in his hand. He then hustled across the street, which I found curious. When I saw that there was a bike missing a seat I told Spencer. We sat there wondering why he would do that. The man started to walk briskly down the sidewalk and then reached for his keys; ready for a get away. At that point we decided to tell the policemen standing on the corner. They started to follow him and called for backup in the area he was headed. They brought the man back and turns out it was his bike seat. He takes his bike seat with him because he has had one stolen before. I felt so foolish.
Maria and I hiked to this lighthouse today. It was a bit warm, but well worth the hike. Isn't it cute?
While we were doing our laundry this week, I picked up an Entertainment Weekly to read. (Someone nice leaves them there for fellow washers to browse through). In an interview with EW, Matt Damon, said this about Christian Bale:
Spencer's sister Maria will be visiting until August 31st. I'm very excited to have her here with us. Could you imagine if I was home all day for three weeks just waiting for our move? At least now I won't be so tempted to start packing.
Today is Admission Day in Hawaii. It celebrates Hawaii's admission to the Union on August 21, 1959. Since it is a legal holiday, schools are closed and we don't have to go to work. I like to call it a day for sleeping in, making french toast, and going to the beach.
