Mystery at the Radison

Our first night in SD S was up at 3 am. Typical jet-lag adjustment. So he got up to do some work and then at 5 am he decided to take a drive around SD County. On his way out the door he nearly bowls over/is nearly bowled over by a man carrying a rather large flat panel TV.

S thinks this is slightly odd and a bit suspicious, and proceeds on his way. Later that morning when we go over to the hotel restaurant for breakfast, we see that the police are there dusting for fingerprints. Yeah, you guessed it, a very large flat panel had been stolen from the restaurant.

We started our house hunting this afternoon. The morning was devoted to a tour of the area where everyone did their best to convince us that we didn't want to live in Oxnard. We toured neighborhoods in Camarillo, Oakbrook, Thousand Oaks, Westlake Village and west Simi Valley all of which have Blue Ribbon schools and great shopping. Yes, basically it was major information overload.

In the afternoon we looked at 9 houses in Oxnard; 2 of them were scary beyond all reason, 2 were not bad and then we saw the the yellow house. The yellow house tops our list thus far, the best stuff about the house isn't in the photos. Tomorrow we look at 11 houses in Camarillo and then on Wednesday we look in Thousand Oaks

I miss my babies, one in Illinois and one with his grandmother in SD. I have some fine photos of Aidy and his cousins that I will post just as soon as I find my PCMCIA card adapter so I can download them to the Precious and upload them to my blog.
