Today, Shera's Achievement Day class had their daddy-daughter bike ride. Jeff said it was really cute to see all the dads come out to ride with their daughters. It was a great start to a fun Saturday. The rest of the day Jeff took the kids and met his brother, Brad and his family, at the swap meet. Shera and Luke got skateboards there. They are having a great time on them too. And so is Sasha...
Then for dinner we tried out a new burger joint called TK Burgers that is right next to the high school. This restaurant is now where the old KFC used to be on Chrisanta. TK stands for "The Kind". The inside of it is all decked out with island and surfer motifs. It was a very cute place with record covers all over the ceiling!
Got a whale of a tale to tell you lad... (20,000 Leagues) Just outside TK's is a cultural site that has been here since 1977. It is a whale skull fossil that was found in Southern Mission Viejo. At night it is lit up in greens and blues. It is surrounded by bars and looks pretty cool! Jacques Cousteau came to visit this site back in 1981.
The marker states that this baleen whale is at least 3.5 to 5 million years old, 58 feet long, and weighs 50 tons with a skull 9 feet across! This is also the only fossil of this type on scientific display in California! And we've got it right here in good 'ol Mission Viejo! Wow!!!

I miss the swap meet big time! I used to teach at a school on Chrisanta so I know right where that TK Burgers is. Always fun to have new places to go.
