On the Left Coast

I'm kind of off-line for a couple of days while I am here in San Diego to attend and speak at a conference. Unfortunately it's work related. Flew out here today, amazing that ExpressJet has a direct flight from Omaha. Unfortunately, it was in a tiny little plane, one of those I like to call "syringes". 3 1/2 hours in the air. All in all it wasn't a bad flight though, had a single-row seat. And it's like, green here. And warm. And sunny.

While flying I almost finished reading Perelandra by C. S. Lewis. I've been reading the Space Trilogy series by Lewis, never had before. These are definitely not kid's books. An amazingly rich and deep allegory of creation, fall, redemption, all that. If you have read them you know what I mean. If not, put them on your list. Not so much science fiction in these, but lots of thought-provoking spiritual matter.
