[quote]Sextillion = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (10^21)[/quote] There’s gotta be more sand than that? With all of the deserts and beaches (there’s a lot of both) in the world, there’s got to be more than that. I was thinking more like an octillion or a nonillion, give or take. ...

Day trip to San Diego

Posted by cassopher on 6/19/24 at 9:05 am
We are staying in Dana Point and we have had a couple of beach days in Laguna this week. We were kicking around the idea of heading down to San Diego for a day trip and maybe go to La Jolla cove and shores. We may even hop on the Pacific Surfliner and ride down. Is it worth a trip down there or s...

Question for dentists or doctors

Posted by cassopher on 5/7/24 at 5:49 am
I’ve been having jaw pain on my right side only when opening my mouth to yawn or take a bite of food. It doesn’t hurt to chew or anything. It hurts kinda near the back of the jaw. I had a back tooth pulled back in January but that socket has been healed for some time now. Any ideas what it could...

One of the nights we are there I’d like to catch a baseball game but I have no interest in seeing the Angels. Please help me decide between seeing a Dodger game or driving down to S.D. and catching a Padr...

Long Weekend Ideas

Posted by cassopher on 12/29/23 at 12:12 pm
We are planning a long weekend trip from January 12-15th and have narrowed it down to Vegas, ski trip, or a weekend trip to Disney World. If we take the kids we will choose Disney or possibly skiing, but if it’s just me and the wife it’ll be Vegas or maybe a romantic ski weekend. Any thoughts fr...

Breakers randomly tripping

Posted by cassopher on 12/21/23 at 5:20 pm
We moved into an 8 year old house in August and last week one of our breakers that powers our kitchen/living room randomly tripped twice. It is a 15 amp arc fault breaker and the only thing it’s powering is TV/soundbar, lights for the kitchen, and a few outlets that have cell chargers plugged into ...
