Bay Bridge Shutdown
Yesterday, the Bay Bridge was closed for construction over the Labor Day weekend. The ferries were running all day so I decided to ride into the city for a dinner date. We ran over to Red’s Java House on Alex’s suggestion, but it was closed by time we got there. So instead we ate some …
Sandy’s Photos
Just got a hold of Sandy’s photos from her little SD880. As usual she’s making me look bad.
The In-laws
I’ve been submerged up to my neck with in-laws. They’re sleeping all over the house. There’s a constant noise level sun up to sun down. My niece Maxie has not yet learned to use her “inside voice”. I’m cooking for 9. And as much as I try to convince them how much of a pain …
Happy AnniBirthery Party kinda thingie
August is a busy month. Let’s see there’s Rick’s Birthday, Chris & Tami’s Anniversary, Jon’s Birthday, Rick & Jen’s Anniversary & our Anniversary. So we decided to combine all these wonderful events in San Mateo at the Kingfish Restaurant… when Jon wasn’t available.
Burgermeister
I can’t remember the last time we all got together. So it was a welcome early seniors dinner at the Burgermeister right here in Alameda.
Come Hungry
Leave happy. We had to try the golden pancakes with fresh sliced banana, rum-butter flavored glaze and toasted macadamia nuts after seeing the IHOP ads on TV.
A Little Reunion

Barin Reunion 2009
Yesterday we flew down to San Diego to attend the Barin Family Reunion. The dinner party was held at Hilton Hotel Mission Valley. Can’t say I knew many of the folks but it’s an excuse to get dressed up and drink scotch. I was expecting a low key boring party, I was happily mistaken. These folks …
Homeward bound
I made it through those long 12 hour work days in the muggy heat. As usual I didn’t have the energy to go out and about. I did manage to get a Kala Thinbody Tenor at the hotel thanks to a vendor, sorry Hun. No BJ Penn Shirts in Blk M Aleki, sorry. Here’s some …
