Today:
- is the last day of winter here (depending how you measure it)!
- there was a big sea lion on the small local beach
- we had a nice family gathering for my niece’s 18th birthday, with lots of laughs over some of her gifts. Her big brothers gave her some old records, including a Wombles one (they used to listen to a Wombles record as young children at their grandma’s place)
