Happy Birthday Jen. We celebrated at Rick & Jen’s, enjoyed bacon wrapped filets & blew off some steam with Beatles Rock Band. Unfortunately I never got a good shot of Jen.

Fryday Date Night
This Friday we met in downtown Alameda to try out our new Indian restaurant, Flavors of India. It was also a test day for the G11. In good light the G11 is great, the jury is still out on the low light stuff.
