Villa Balmara on its lava cliff, San Antonio del Mar, Baja California Norte, June 2, 2008. Here on the latest Dodie Quest. Can I find a place for Dodie and me in Baja?
Coronado Island in the distance, no horizon. Ocean, haze, and sky just blend together. Gentle sunshine, sea breeze, seaweed on the beach, rhythm of waves. An old lava flow juts out on the right. The surf has sculpted the old flow into a pointy froth, like little hoodoos. Never seen that before. Must be a lot of it in Hawaii. So here's the epiphany. Suddenly I totally get it why my son Anton and his wife Angie want to move to Hawaii. That's a bit of a stretch for me. Maybe I could handle Baja, though.
