I made Sandy lunch yesterday… She said she is liking my retirement.
Sandy’s Lunch
Illeagles
Tonight we had the pleasure of watching an Eagles tribute band, Illeagles here in Alameda.
Friday Retirement Meals
As previously mentioned I wanted to step up my cooking. Today’s menu: High level SPAM, rice & egg 😉 and for dinner Pork Au Poivre with a cranberry bean ragu. I forgot to photograph the French bread I made. We washed it down with a Wellington Petite Syrah courtesy of Eli.
Retirement 2026
After too many years working I finally pulled the plug and retired July 2nd, 2026. I’ve always maintained that work prevented me from pursuing my hobbies. Let’s see if that turns out to be true.
July 4th, 2026
Vanden invited us over to his place for the 4th. Thanks to Vanden for the photos.
Dominic Baseball 2026
I got to shoot Dom at one of his baseball games.
Sandy’s BDay 2026
For Sandy’s Birthday we went to Lita in Walnut Creek.
Maximus Graduation
We had the honor of watching Max graduate from Sonoma State University. Later we dined at Rivera Ristorante.
Thanks to Rhea & Sandy for the additional photos.
Nico Baseball 2026
I was able to catch Nico’s last baseball game of the 2026 season.
California Northern Coastal
Work took me up the coast. I stopped off in Trindad Beach and reached in my camera backpack and realized I left my camera on my desk. Therefore I had to only use my iPhone.
