Uncle Russell turned 60 today. We were invited to a surprise birthday party at the beautiful home of Sheldon & Debbie. There was way too much great tasting food. Humm… 1947, Uncle wasn’t that before cars were invented?

This morning we were honored by a visit from Tita Flor. We picked her up at the Jack London Square Amtrak station and she treated us to breakfast at our local Chuck Corica Golf Course. I couldn’t finish my biscuits and gravy, the portions were huge! Sandy had the waffles and Tita Flor had an …

What a gorgeous day for a premeditated date. I hopped on the Harbor Bay Ferry and met Sandy in the city. We then strolled over to Sai’s for a tasty bowl of Phó.

An Accidental Date
Today we visited the Legion of Honor on an accidental date (Sandy loves those).

While I was out shooting pictures, Sandy wandered into the museum and to my surprise bought …
Happy Father’s Day

Crawdad Festival 2007
We ventured out to Isleton this year for the 22nd annual Crawdad Festival. We enjoyed the smoked turkey legs, enormous onion rings and of course a large order of crawdads. Man they were spicy. Promoters estimate a crowd of 50,000 and 24,000 lbs of boiled crawdads to be consumed.
