Pace

Things are a little more laid back here, by design. You will relax or else. This is where doctors send all their type-A, heart-attacks waiting to happen. Without a lot of tall buildings to look at your attention goes to the sky, a beautiful one yesterday filled with thunderheads in the humid haziness. After a breakfast at the No Sweat Cafe, we ventured through some antique stores where Joy found a copper vase thing to hold flowers over our great room mantle. Then it was out to her brother Gary's place to see what he was up to. Back to Bill's where they had brought Joy's Mom. Joy went through a pile of her stuff that had been transferred from Palm Springs and came away with a few mementos to fill the storage at our house. Lots of sitting around, reading, snoozing and wondering if it's OK to have nothing to do.
