Wedding at Centennial Park

On Sunday I rode my bike by these wedding preparations at Centennial Park.  What a beautiful location.  Best wishes to the newlyweds!

View of Point Loma

You can see Point Loma clearly from Coronado's Central Beach.   The Pacific Ocean is on the left, and on the far right is the mouth of the San Diego Bay.

The beaches are much less crowded since school started, but I miss the happy sounds of children's laughter!

Coronado Bay Bridge

The clean modern lines of the Coronado Bay Bridge are striking.  I adore it because no matter where we wander, it always brings us home to Coronado.

Surrey Ride Around Coronado

Nothing brings the family together like a surrey ride - everybody pedals!  It's the perfect slower-paced mode for touring the village of Coronado.  I took this photo on Ocean Boulevard, looking out over the Pacific Ocean.

Tidelands Park Playground

Are these colorful sculptural art or practical benches?  At Tidelands Park playground you get both.  Children love them, and parents can't resist resting on them at the edge of the playground.

The Coronado Sandman

The Sandman is a talented local fellow who creates whimsical, temporary sand art on the streets of Coronado.  I found this cheerful image on Ocean Boulevard this morning while riding my bike.  Written on the side was "Happy Birthday Kim."

First Day of School

School started today in Coronado, and as always I have mixed feelings; excitement at having time to myself again, but a distinct emptiness at saying goodbye to constant togetherness... and the recognition that time is marching on.

I want to express my appreciation to the outstanding teachers and staff in our Coronado Schools.  There's no place else we'd rather be!
