Good day. I got up a little later this morning around 9:00 AM. I was 
ore drowsy and tired of this morning than I was yesterday. Well not really I was more 
rouchy this morning. We actually had to wait for breakfast because it was very crowded do it being Father's Day. 
Alice, Mimi and I got up and had breakfast at the eating area at the Marriott. It was a buffet style. We 
had to wait a little bit because there was a crowd. The guy at the front 
was pretty hairy and grumpy. The buffet had some pretty good food in it. I had various 
fruit and muffin eggs and a cuppa coffee. Alpice and I both read copies of the Wall Street Journal
and I completed my blog posting about Hannah's graduation from 
yesterday. It's 12:29 PM and we're checking out and removing our items and heading 
back to San Diego we thought about going to the beach in Ventura but it's a bit overcast and cool for that.It looks like well everybody's 
paying attention to Trump being investigated for Russia,the administration is rolling back 
Civil rights protections
across the government. We're driving down US 101 prevent sure
through LA to San Diego. It is now 12:17 PM Pacific time. So far it's going fairly smoothly. Time for some grumpy 😦👀
Right now we have the Moth on the radio. It's this ultra cool intellectual NPR- type program. 
It's got some of the hippest storytellers ever. You know comics who produce highly attractive 
shows and meet their husbands after HE GOOGLED her. I mean if I did that I probably be arrested and shunned for being some kind of weirdo. I mean really think about that for a minute. What is hip for some is just plain 
weird and creepy for others. Well, I then got depressed moodyIt's got some of the hippest storytellers ever.

and put a post on this website. we're about an hour and a half from San Diego now as of 2:23 PM I'm sneaking some serious well nobody can 
ear me. I've been writing back-and-forth to different peopleI shared my rant for the few people in my depressive little thing I put on this
The picture is very artistic so I decided to try something moody today on it.
When I take it advantage 
f my moodiness and make it artistic because otherwise being this moody is just not fun. It's Father's
Day today and I just saw this article in the USA T
oday about a man whose father who was not around a lot. He thanks his Father in a backhanded way but now he wants to be super dad.. I don't know 
ow I feel about it but I feel like posting it. It's 4pm and we are
30 from home at this time. I am tired of being in the truck. It won't be long. The Moth is STILL 
on so I am on headphones listening to The Go Betweens now. They are one of many 
roups that I was into back in 1990. We actually got home more like 4:15 PM. We brought in all the clothes and I took a nice shower. I really needed it I was pretty gross. We're just settling in now and it's 4:50 PM Pacific time.
well, we settled in and head in takeout Indian food which was very very good. I was loving that stuff. We then settle down and watched a really creepy movie called "pet" it was very creepy and suspenseful. we then follow movie called Saint Ralph. Which was a cute coming-of-age movie about a dorky kid at a Catholic boarding school who almost when's the Boston Marathon. then it was time to hit the sack and get a good nights sleep
Well the alarm went off at 6 AM and we had to get up early. Alice's 
ar broke down so we have to take Uber to the graduation which is like 80 bucks to spend on the ride. She handled it in stride. she thanks burg car is not seriously damaged. She thinks the sensors went haywire 
ecause she didn't put the emergency see break off all the way 
hile she was driving.Boy I slept like a rock. I got to get her up because 
he's very heavy sleeper and she's been driving around all day. I was the first one up and Adam so
I got coffee for both Alice and myself. It's now 7:09 AM and 
e're hoping to be able to rent a car with enterprise. We're going to check out a day 
arly from the hotel. This just out, 
ould still reach Ryan but I think he's probably dodged a bullet. Yes mesogonamy
ahas taken over again! Well I decided to take the trip 
ith Becky and her friend so I would be on time for the graduation 
take pictures. The ride was really fun. We rode in the car and make fun of Jackson Browne 
ong Lawyers in Love. It is the goofiest song I think that man is ever written or signed
. I got to get a copy of the lyrics. Went to the university and easily find a parking spot. He then took
someone of a long walk towards the graduation area. We walked towards a
lagoon that is near the campus. The area where the ceremony was held abuts the natural
lagoon. Well I I went off from the others to look 
4 a good place to eat a photograph or two or three at a graduation mode. They had
a lot of graduates and replace with Gordon pretty tightly. I 
looked on the right side of the stage looked around and took some broad crowd shots. 
I chilled around there for a little bit. I decided I'd move around towards the center and then I
went to the left side facing the stage. I took a couple pictures of the speakers and videotaped a little bit of their 
resentations but not that often. Well after that I managed to stay on the left side 
of the stage and it was a pretty good angle for the graduates. That was because 
the graduates which we are walking towards my way so 
realized that my camera view was close enough to get a half decent picture.
I then discovered that doing video was gonna work out better because I could just use 
stills & that's exact moment I want to get. Not 
problem with the ceremony is that there was no particular order of who is going to be cold next. 
here was no Alpha and there was no school of science is in school of arts. So 
had to stand there until I can recognize Hannah through the whole crowd. Well Hannah showed up and I 
managed to get a decent picture 
of her as she was walking towards shaking hands with the commencement speaker and the head of the University. I was pretty 
psyched that I got the
good pictures. After I got the pictures, I went back to find the folks
I was with. I was really hungry so I got myself a breakfast burrito. I think at the spot real
nice and it was only six dollars. Well calls were made by my nieces and we met Alice at a restaurant nearby within walking
distance. She 
had rented a brown truck because there was no other cars available during 
raduation weekend. We really joyed the restaurant. The food 
as mighty tasty. We happen to hang out and yuck it up for a while. I got
a lot of good pictures of everyone chatting and everybody giving Hannah their 
raduation gifts. I'll send her a photo album through the Internet. I think 
that would be my best idea. Actually Alice thought
of that idea. After we ate we went to the beach and played around for a while. It was really fun 
nd easy going well after we did that, Alyssa can do my own thing so Iimmediately called 
my friend I met in Philly. And she pick me up 15 
inutes later. Meanwhile
my charger had run out but I was able to get it charged for us by a 
woman who knew Hannah. She let me use her car charger.
then I went to Hannah's place. It was pretty cool a bunch of people that live there. I was told 12 people live there. It was very very much like us 
California commune. It was nice and open and very relaxing. I even got to take a
nap there as well. That was very pleasant. I stuck to my own business as the very handsome looking boys and girls were chilling 
out and making 
inner for themselves and the guests that 
were coming over. The guests are the parents and uncles and relatives of the graduates 
nd friends of the graduates. I had a little bit there the food was pretty good for a party 
atmosphere that for sure. Yes they had beer but it wasn't like a ridiculous college party. It was very
mellow and chill. After we hung around it had its place, we went to the big old shindig 
arbecue that they were having. It was 
pretty well packed. We had a pretty good time and then we left around 9:30 PM for the 45 minute 
drive back to Ventura in the Marriott hotel. We got home we just mellowed out and 
we just listened to our own entertainment on our own individual iPhones that we had with us. 
I am told I snore. It was a very fun day for this 55 year old man who 
ppreciates the chance to see how the other half (of the USA) lives. At the end we got some snacks and park the funny looking orange and brown pick up truck but I also rented in with the bad
