As you may have noticed, I’ve been on hiatus. I was enjoying myself on vacation, so much so that I kept extending it. What started as a three day camping trip to the Grand Canyon, turned into a 9 day trip across California. In fact, if you are interested to see what we were up to, you can read about our travels here. For those not so inclined, suffice it to say it was relaxing and enjoyable.

It was also nice to get away from the keyboard for awhile. In fact, I not only stopped blogging, I also stop reading other blogs (except for excerpts in my emails). It was a nice three months off, indeed. But, it’s time to get back to the reality of life.

I see we didn’t really miss much. The recent election reported the lowest turnout of the century. Add to this the fact that Councilmembers Beckie Gomez and Al Murray ran unopposed, I suspect Tustin was among the lowest. And, although I didn’t pay much attention, I suspect incumbent school board members were re-elected without fanfare. That’s not to say the votes weren’t needed but, with no pressing measures or opposing candidates, I could understand why voters didn’t bother.

In any case, we are back and ready to blog about Tustin past, present and future. So, sit down, buckle up and enjoy the ride.
