WonderWoman  and Superman spent a week in Orange County and drove home Wednesday to Las Vegas ...
 
 
with a mother-in-law in the back seat!

and trucks ...
 
 
and desert ...
 
 
and clouds ...
 

signs and I spend a lot of time ... 
 

studying the images in the clouds.

We had the best Chinese food I have ever had, and the covers 81 years!
