Live from Pacific Beach

Just noticed that there's something screwy with the images on this blog. I can't really do anything about it at the moment as I'm on holiday and don't really want to spend any time picking my way through code! I'll deal with it when I get back.\

That said, as soon as I post this I bet the temptation to fiddle with the template will overwhelm me and I'll just make things worse. Ho-hum.

Anyway, having a great time here in the US. Went to a service at The Rock church in San Diego this morning, which is about as far removed from a typical CofE service as you can imagine.

Getting a little red too. Need better sunblock before I turn into a lobster.

Watched yesterday
