Our time at home has calmed down. We don’t have any trips planned in the near future, and we won’t have visitors for a few weeks. Planning on spending a lot of time at the beach to soak up these last weeks of summer, to relax, and to hit the water surfing.

I had a weird allergic reaction this past week – broke out in hives – and am trying to figure out if I’m allergic to neoprene wetsuits or just a contaminated wetsuit rental. I’ve been doing some research online but haven’t found a clear answer. Any thoughts?

How is your summer going? I haven’t been able to get to everything on my list, but sometimes the funds just don’t support it. I’ve still been having a wonderful, sunny, California summer.
