Clark's Crinkle Cut

Sara always think it's funny whenever Clark has gone for a MTB ride that his hair crinkle-cut from his helmet! We're posting this one just to show that Clark is secure within himself and doesn't really care what his hair looks like after a ride in the hills!

El Capitan State Beach

Last weekend we went camping with our Loma Linda friends at El Capitan State Beach just north of Santa Barbara - it was good to get out for the weekend and smell the fresh sea breeze again!
Our Campsite - in total we were about 20 people camping on 3 campsites. We got together on this one for all our shared meals. That is our blue tent in the background.
Going for a leisurely stroll to the beach. Really very pretty and peaceful!
Beautiful beach but really cold seawater!

Pioneer Town

A few weeks ago we took a drive to Pioneer Town - just 4 miles outside of Yucca Valley. It's in the desert, and the scene for a Hollywood-style old wild west town.
Actors playing out a gun-fighted western scene - complete with drama, intrigue and blanks! Ofcourse you know which 2 things were the cause of this bloody battle: money and a woman at the centre of it all! This was a soap opera wild west style!
This notice says it all! What would a western town be without it's "Dead or Alive" rewards signs!
Many a prisoner has looked out of this cell! Even though it was only for short film stints! Funny, I always wondered what a bird must see looking out of it's cage!
Here Clark is standing at the front of the general grocer - every town had it local trader!
Quite a cute little town as western towns were back in the 1800's.

Garage cabinets

What would a man be without his garage?!?! The garage is Clark's domain, the ONLY place where he is king and reigns supreme in the Botha household! So is it any wonder that he wanted to get cabinets and arrange everything neatly? We'll post the after pics later when they are all done!

Sara's ski boot!

Quite a few of you wanted to see Sara's boot that she got from the orthopaedic - well here it is! Surprisingly it's not that difficult to walk in, even though Sara is only allowed to walk if she absolutely has to!
And here she is sitting on a bench in our residential complex - making the boot part of her stylish looks!
