AJ Takes a Dive

And not his usual kind of "takes a dive". No blood at the end. Or broken bones. Nailed it!

Season Finale for Science After Dark

Matteo, Lynn, and I went to the season finale of the Science After Dark program (run by the Central Coast STEM Collaborative). We got to check out a few critters at the El Chorro Outdoor School and raise a toast to the SciAD presenters over the years. I presented a session back in February on the science and romance of diamonds.

"Retirement"

"It was so hard to make the decision to step down from my position at the church mainly because I love our staff sooo much!! Love their sweet words of appreciation mean the word to me! I have been missing working with each everyone of them. Love you all Grace Central Coast!!" Tracy

End-of-Year Thank You Cookies

For teachers and bus drivers!

Well, He's not Claustrophobic

I'm guessing. Does appreciate safe spaces, however.

Bye Bye Birdie

"At last the run has come; the run has come at last," with apologies to Mae. Today's show marks the end of the first weekend of the run! What?! Upon turning the show over to the SLO Little Theatre after the final dress rehearsal, our director Heidi told us to "make every moment of every show count, it'll be over before you know it." She was right. And every moment has been worth remembering. Thanks to Danielle Dutro McNamara Photography for photo-documenting our show (her photos are noted below). And then there are a few selfies, from backstage, where there's another whole show going on... And did I mention cotton candy grapes?!...

The photos get more recent as you scroll down, including shots from closing day.

Love getting these glasses! (That's not colored water.)

And then it happened.
