Today we had brunch at Pappos, then followed that with an X men movie.
Post Birthday
Sandy’s Day
Today we celebrated Sandy’s Birthday. I suggested going to Taco Bell and she could order anything off the dollar menu… She instead wanted to go to Tribu in Union City.
26 hrs in Paradise
Flew in around noon, done by 5. I had to fly 2400 mi just to have dinner with Teddy & Christine.
Flew out at 1:15PM in pouring rain. Have a nice vacation Teddy & Christine.
Yank Sing
We had a mini Italian reunion this morning at Yank Sing in San Francisco. The Dim Sum was excellent and of course it was great to see the Asato’s.
Memorial Day 2011
I usually go to our local Veterans park to photograph the Memorial Day events, but this year I forgot and committed to a family outing in San Francisco. It didn’t feel right skipping this tradition, so I went out to the Golden Gate National Cemetery in San Bruno yesterday to shoot a few photos to memorialize those who served. I have never been there before and could not believe the scale of this place.
Diver Down
The terns were daring me to shoot them. I could not for the life of me get a good shot so I made a composite.
Lazy Sunday
There should be a 3 day weekend every month. This lazy Sunday afternoon Sandy surprised me with a linguine & clam dish for lunch.
Nierva’s 2011
We rescheduled numerous times but finally got together with the Nierva’s at Angel Fish here in Alameda. The girls were adorable.
Cookie
Sandy bought a chocolate chip cookie mix a while back and it’s been taunting me… so I made it.
Passing Duck
Our own Aflac duck, Ben, has been looking pretty dirty lately and yesterday, he had some nasty green crap. Tired of cleaning up after him, I chased him out of the backyard. I noticed he stumbled quite a bit. He just sat outside our fence all day and I mentioned to Sandy this didn’t look good. I came out this morning and he was lying on some Pampas Grass, he passed away during the night. Yes he was ugly, needy & messy but I was saddened to see him lifeless. I used to feed him everyday right outta the bottle. I always got a kick out of that.
