After a “mild” summer we’ve had about a week of 100-ish heat in the valley. The city hasn’t been much better. I think the heat came because too many people talked openly about what a mild summer it’s been. So we escaped to Marina Del Rey over the weekend to stay near the water where it was about 20 degrees cooler (we even had to put sweatshirts on). We rode the water bus, which is a great $1 boat ride that tours the whole Bay. Jordan mostly wanted to get back to see more of the Lighthouse on the shore.

Happy New Year to all.
