Happy Earth Day from San Diego!

After two gorgeous days in Ocean Beach/San Diego, CA, we just finished our final prep for the first leg of the trip and are ready to hit the trail in Campo tomorrow morning. Since our arrival in San Diego, we have over indulged in sunshine and babe watching, cruised the coast on bikes, investigated tide pools, and swung from eucalyptus trees on Sunset Cliffs.  Another huge thank-you to Rob for all his help and for bumming around with us in SD.

If any of you would like to send mail/letters along the trail, here is the format on how to address them.
