The San Diego California Trip, even this ATX Real Estate Broker needs a vacation every so often....

6.14-6.19 2022.

Sheila Fish and I spurned by the oppressive daily 100 plus degree Austin Texas HEAT, decided to book a last minute, impromptu vacation to Pacific Beach, oceanfront airbnb condo for about a week. We flew there and back direct via Southwest Airlines. The highlights of the trip were the San Diego weather, ocean front chill vibes, recreation, lounging, food and sounds. The daily Low was 60 degrees and the High, yes the High was about 70 degrees. Even in Mid-June, at night one could wear a light jacket if desired. Below are photos I took from the various geographic areas and SD neighborhoods we visited, walked though, ubered or took bicycles through. San Diego and Pacific Beach did have obvious homeless problems. Coronado was the cleanest and most picture perfect area. --GVM

Austin, Texas has a DOG PROBLEM.....

Austin, Texas has a DOG problem (Letter I wrote and sent) Dear Austin City Council Members, Hello and well regards, Yesterday afternoon during a simple bicycle pedal exercise ride, I was physically chased by an unleashed Pitbull dog in ZILKER PARK. Then directly after recovering from almost being mauled by an unleashed pit-bull in Zilker Park, I attempted to buy a Gatorade at a nearby Barton Springs Road Market, but that didn't go well either, as an interior Market commercial customer had a massive mixed breed dog trolling through the diminutive shopping isles. Then this morning, at a Coffee shop on SoCo, there was only 1 entry way in and out, and there was another large, although more docile mixed breed dog. All of this has occurred in less than 24 hours. What's the point? The City of Austin's dog friendliness and citizen enabling of irresponsible dog owners has gotten out of control. Newsflash!
