Last day in CA

Rose decided to come to Simi and see us one last time since we didn't have to head to the airport until about 2. We had been talking about checking out the big duck pond, so we stole some bread from my parents and headed over there. This place is cool because there are so many types of water birds. Along with the ducks you usually see in CA, there are wood ducks as well, and a couple different types of geese.

"Wow, would you look at all these ducks!" (And pigeons and geese). He has on Grandma's visor. "May I have some bread please, Grandma?"
If you look closely at this one, you can see bread pieces flying through the air.

With his own piece, carefully tearing off small pieces.

Then we had a nice little picnic near the playground. Rose and I ate while Orion alternated between sliding and coming over for bites.

Back to Simi and off to the airport. The trip home was pretty much like the trip to CA, except we sat closer to the front. Because of this, I was more tuned into what was going on in the whole plane. I am not sure if the other flight was like this, but these attendants kept pushing the free beer and wine! Gotta love Alaska Airlines. There were some happy folks on there by the time we landed! It was pretty funny.

Daddy met us at the airport and we dragged our tired butts home. Ron had cleaned the kitchen, although he kept telling me he hadn't. And he installed a water purifier on our faucet. Both nice surprises!
