Inside My World...HFireman

A very eclectic and far-ranging blog. A glimpse into my mindset... things I find interesting, provocative and worth thinking about... things visual, things fictional, observations and commentary,... and questions that we need to be asking ourselves. Welcome to my world.

California Dreaming

I just got back from California on Monday. My family and I were out there for my daughter, Heather's, wedding. She wanted to have a wedding on the beach and she and her new husband, Ben, did just that. We were at Sunset Beach, California. Sunset Beach is a town right on the PCH... the Pacific Coast Highway. The weather was absolutely gorgeous, weather in the 80's and the evenings cool and breezy. The wedding was really laid back affair, for the most part very relaxed. It was a really lovely ceremony and later, when we dined on the roof of the beach house where we were staying, and the 25 or so people there and I had a really pleasant meal together.

These are the moments we remember in our lives. These are moments of naches, which in Yiddish means happiness and joy. I felt such enormous pleasure and joy in witnessing my daughter's marriage to a really fine young man. They make a very lovely couple. And the memories of these wonderful moments in my life make getting through the difficult times a lot more bearable.

So I sit here back in the realities of my life. But when my mind wanders a bit tonight, I do some California dreaming.

Kindest regards,

PS. Look for the photos from California in a few days. Sunset Beach is a really beautiful place, as you will see, very soon.

to hfireman,
thanks for the last comment you gave me. it was interesting.
lucky that the weather was fine at Heather's wedding. My mum's a makeup artist. She could have done her makeup and hair if she could get over there. its nice having a wedding at a beach. the sunsets would be really pretty.

Wow~ I'm sure you must have had wonderful time at Califonia. I'd like to go there if I have some free time. A few years age, I went to Seattle and Lewis Clark where is surburb in the state Washington. At that time, I was going to go to Sanfrancisco and Los Angeles in the state Califonia. but unfortunately, I couldn't. I also think the USA is beutiful and marvelous places.
If it is possible, I'd like to visit there one more.....
