It has been a very nice week weather wise!  The days have been  cool to cold and that has been nice!  The nights are cold but not enough to turn on the heater but feels good to bundle up in the covers.  I don't know how long this will last but I wish this to be our weather forever!  BUT, I know this is SoCali so it will heat up soon and be ultra-hot.  At least for now I can leave things off like the AC or even lights and heaters.  Those take up so much energy and make electric bills go up so high!

Weekly Update:
Went to Vegas this week for a couple of nights for an annual convention, CinemaCon!  Ran into a lot of old friends and made some new ones.  Saw some amazing presentations from Disney and WB, missed several others but that is ok, can't catch them all.  But the line-up for Disney was pretty incredible and by far the best in terms for what was shown.  Others had tons of celebrities but if you couldn't meet them, was just kind of blah.  But I did got to a great event and caught some pics with some folks:

*LilRel Howery - from the upcoming "Uncle Drew" movie and a cool guy.
*Tiffany Haddish - Also from "Uncle Drew" and very sweet!  Every picture she took, she would say "success!"
*Anna Kendrick - from the "Pitch Perfect" franchise and very sweet.
*Blake Lively - probably more famous for being married to Ryan Reynolds but extremely nice.

At the movies:
No surprise at the box office as Avengers: Infinity War earns top honors with a huge 250 million for domestic gross.  right now on track to potentially reach 700 mil.  Word-of-mouth is good to great so should hold at #1 for several weeks.  In a distant #2 is "A Quiet Place" with 10.7 mil but still a good show for a non-holiday weekend.  Holding at #3 is "I Feel Pretty" with 8.1 mil but quickly burning out.  Holding at #4 is "Rampage" with 7.1 mil, still will be shy of 100 mil cume.  Rounding off the top 5 is "Black Panther" with 4.4 mil and may crawl to 700 mil cume still.
