Report from San Diego
Michael Smith, I went downtown this morning looking for two things. A hat to wear in Palm Springs, something in natural straw, small brim bent over the eye with a nice band. Saw one at Nordstrom, it was close, but it wasn’t quite it. Nothing elsewhere. The second thing Havanianas Flip-flops. Again, a couple styles at Nordstrom, same story, and again nothing elsewhere. I looked up the dessert place but it was a little too far afield for me, maybe next time. I know Danny would, in a heartbeat, make room on the path. I went to Old Town, intending to have lunch at your suggestion. Alas, after two passes, the second after climbing the hill then driving down dizzying inclines, I opted for In-n-Out at Rosecranz and something. You know? An amazing process to watch. Many served, processes in overdrive.
Then a quiet afternoon. I napped under the sun by the pool with a 30-spf on for about 15 minutes. I think I have some color.
More later, y’all.
I’m thinking tomorrow will be another visit to La Jolla (Cooper, maybe I’ll find the shop you suggested). I think I will go back to the Mission Beach shops I drove by yesterday but didn’t stop in, in search of sexy new flip-flops.

Rick, do you have a pea-head? My sister (who lives about 25 miles from Palm Springs) says she can never find the right hat because she has a pea-head. The hats are all too big.
No, but I have a particularly sized head that the small/med or lg/xl doesn’t cover. I need a med/lg.
Daryl has a great big ol’ head.
