It never rains...

...in Southern California.

No really, I think the song is actually true. It's weird to see CLOUDS out here. Rain happens, but not much and not since I've been here.

We left to come out here 15 and 5 days, one dead coyote, a broken radiator and a uhaul with a tow hitch to get the car the rest of the way, later we made it to Cali about 2 and a half weeks ago. Our house is NICE. We have a big living room and a nice sized eat in kitchen. 2 bedrooms, one bathroom and a garage. Our little backyard has a patio and is fenced in. We have sliding glass doors out to the pation from the master bedroom and the living room. We have ceiling fans in the living room and master bedroom. Our yard is rocks with some desert plants in it. The outside of the house is cute too. My camera died the morning after we got here and I keep forgetting to get batteries or I'd post some pictures. The couple I have of the house aren't very good.

Oh what the hell:

Here is the kitchen with Q standing in it.


And here is the living room (well, most of it anyway lol):



And THIS was the first sunset I saw in Cali:



I honestly think it's kind of pretty out here. Everyone keeps asking if I'm crazy or telling me to give it a couple more days. :P I mean yes everything is brown, but the mountains are pretty and the desert plants are REALLY cool. The Joshua Trees are probably my favorite, I can't even describe them so I found a picture...



Nifty huh?! I think they look like they are growin koosh balls :)

Anywhos.

I am enjoying being a housewife for now at least. Last weekend we drove to Palm Springs (about an hour away) with 2 of Q's buddies to the closest movie theater (we have a $2 theater on base but they don't have th enew releases for a while) to see Iron Man. It kicked ass. This weekend Sanchez and maybe Galt (I don't know ANYONE's first name lol) are coming over to barbque. I think I'm going to make either a peach and black berry pie or a mixed berry pie. Have to head to the commissary and see if they have any good peaches before I decide :)

Well, I have some clothes to fold and dishes to put away. I'll try and post more pictures once I remember to get batteries :P
