From Sea Ranch

I'm sitting here in the master bedroom of my Sea Ranch house and it's freezing cold. We have the heater on, but my mom left the window open in the bedroom. We share this bedroom even though there are two others because it has a really nice bathroom.

Well, we had to pay 50 dollars, but the Internet is working. I get seven days to use it.

It's overcast today but for a couple of days the sun was out. I love to sit outside in the lounge chair and let the sun come down on me. It gets pretty warm here, which is nice. But not today.

Tomorrow my mom and I are driving to Mendocino. We always go to Mendo Burger up there. It's very good.

We've been going to the beach everyday. This morning we got up at seven to see the low tide. It revealed a couple of starfish and a million green squishy anemone type creatures. But the seals were still out. They are the cutest things, especially when they try to inch their way along the rocks. The other day they beached themselves. I've never seen them on the beach before. I watched one of them swim up to the shore and let the waves carry him onto the sand. He then bounced as quickly as he could to find a spot amongst the others. They tend to snort at each other and whack each other with their flippers. It's very funny.

My mom and I brought our bikes with us. She hasn't ridden since she was a kid and she was determined not to ride at Sea Ranch. She convinced herself that she would just fall over. But she did try it and of course she still knew how to ride. Now she asks me if I want to go riding with her. Heh. We like to ride to this little playground and then walk to the beach from there. That's were we went today, but we drove.

The day before yesterday the sun was out and it was very warm. We walked to another beach and just sat in the sun. It was the best day so far. When the sun shows up again I'd like to go back.

I will write again tomorrow after I return from Mendocino.
