  This blog deals with a number of city hikes with the focus narrowed to controversial aspects of tunnel vision. This will follow after a few introductory photographs showing some early spring moves of nature.     As an aside, many people are very fond of San Diego and its position situate between the desert and ocean, with many residences resting on the surrounding hills, not forgetting an attractive downtown. We find our primary attraction of the city is its pearls:  ELLIE and BENNY , G-d bless them. We think our late parents might (big might) feel they did something right in bringing us up as we appreciate the obvious beauty. We might have finally redeemed ourselves (partially). A scene in Bankers' Hill. A tree view of downtown San Diego. Next time, we intend framing a plane. After publishing the blog, the following day we headed out with a purpose, taking a good break from the stock market. We did 'frame' a plane. Jenni mentioned that...

  We stopped producing blogs for Nepal as we had covered Pokhara over a 3-months period. Obviously, the coverage is superficial, nevertheless, it's sufficient to gain some perspective. There are incomplete blogs covering at least another fifteen hikes not shown. This ultimate one focuses on the incredible Annapurna Range and a few other attractive spots within the region.    Truth be told, one begins including a photograph which leads to a story, a sequence, interesting incidents and off one heads and there is no end.

We would like to believe we are still having a continuing 'General MacArthur moment': "We shall return."    A view of the Annapurna Range from Begnastal. Lost a number of peaks. A scene at Shiva Temple showing two of the 4 faces (values) of the lord.   We learn continuously in Nepal that ...

An earlier time, an admirable era of sacrifice and courage and finally, the reward from a grateful woman.   San Diego Airport is considered a difficult one to navigate from the air as there are many buildings 'protecting' the runway. It takes additional care and skill to land at this major coastal city. Because of the impediment, we have always been fascinated for at least two reasons: An enjoyment in watching the skilled pilots in action via maneuvering of the aircraft and, that we are often passengers. This you might think gives us a vested interest. No argument coming from our direction other than perhaps some hot air.    Recently, we reserved an apartment in Mission Hills. Turns out that the area is in a word: Wonderful. Most of our living, pre-Hikeabout, was in the northern parts of San Diego. While the north is mostly modern, the southern parts of the city are older which give them much character. In addition, this region is covered in canyons, hills, ...
