Saturday night, a return trip to the fair for some fair food:
and a Pearl Jam cover band. We tried to win me a goldfish (we were going to call him Finn) but $1 later, we still hadn't sunk any balls and figured we could buy one at a pet store for another dollar, so we called it a night.
This morning we tried to get up early to get a hike in at the Mission Trails Regional Park. Given that temps inland can hit 90 by noon we wanted to get an early start. We did manage to get on the trail by 8:30 am. We climbed Cowles Mountain, the San Diego equivilant of Mt. Si. Hiking here is very different than in the northwest: no trees, no water, smaller mountains and very urban.

Where the Pacific Ocean would be if the fog weren't there:
Then spent the remainder of the afternoon cleaning, potting plants and finally feeling settled. Tomorrow, it is back to work.
