Balboa Park-San Diego,California

This is an exert from the front page of their website.As soon as I can find the RSS feed for you to follow,I will add it.
This is a really beautiful park,with a ban on smoking,in light of the recent fires the County of San Diego suffered just about a year or so ago,which devastated much of the lush landscape that San Diego County is known for.
Last year,in August,I was there with my family celebrating my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary,and had the chance to take a wonderful walk to the various buildings that house "The Museum of Space History",where they were holding "The Star Trek" exhibition,which went for about 6 months,ending January 3,2009.

Enjoy Balboa Park - a special place where you can experience San Diego's natural beauty, wonderful art and culture and stunning Spanish Revival architecture. There are so many things to do and see in the Park:

* museums ranging from art to science to air and space to natural history or anthropology
* performing arts from plays at the Tony Award® -winning Old Globe to concerts on the magnificent Spreckels Organ Pavilion outdoor stage
* lush landscaping and lovely gardens
* the world famous San Diego Zoo
* places for fun with families and recreation for all
* and, of course, unique shopping, restaurants and casual outdoor dining.

Hey Everyone,
How is everybody doing? I hope all the Mothers had a wonderful Mothers' Day.
My internet connection is really,really bad,and cuts me off constantly,so as usual,I am playing catchup everywhere. I don't have any new pics to submit,but I will soon.
My fiancee got a new job and it's in Huntington Beach,so we may be moving there in about 3-4 weeks,so I will be super busy the whole time,packing,house-hunting,and keeping up with the kids and other places,but I will be stopping by as connection allows.Have a great day tomorrow,Cindy

Here's one I got after a local building teardown. Happens a lot around here, and the other buildings have some neat little secrets! This one is well preserved.

I really enjoyed my camera in Baton Rouge!

This has to be one of my favorite pictures, I took it in Baton Rouge while there for training! Along the Mississippi
