Ventura life in La Quinta

Sorry for the lack of updates.  Our days have consisted of continental breakfast at around 7:30-8:00 A.M., which by the way have been delightful (waffles, bagels, yogurt, cereal, fruit, orange juice).  We usually take a couple bagels with cream cheese back to the room to eat for lunch.  Then from 8:30 until 8:00 P.M. we have been applying for jobs.  No place accepts paper applications so it's rough being nothing more than an electronic form in a sea of electronic forms and not a person with a face and personality.  It hasn't been all work though.  We have been able to stop by the pool a handful of times and we usually take a break around 7 or 8 P.M. to enjoy the jacuzzi.  The hotel here is pretty nice although there is no microwave......

........good thing we brought the toaster oven!!!

 Pretty much everywhere is scenic.

 Palm trees everywhere!!

 Harbor Cove Beach 

(A mere 8 minute drive from our hotel.)

 Paul getting scared by a wave.

 This is the kinda stuff we can look forward to when we finally get jobs and a real place to stay.

Footprints of all varieties.

 Paul's tired.
