Today we were lucky to get a visit from Pearl & Jerry on their way to Santa Cruz. We prepared lunch and were entertained by Jack n Jenna.

Random Photo of the Week 12
August 2002
Company Picnic
It was one of those rare occasions when I get together with my coworkers. There are only 3 of us in Northern California. We grilled an assortment of good eats – country style boneless pork ribs, salmon with curry sauce and mixed veggies. We filled our guts and had some stimulating conversation. Oh, Taylor was …
Chris & Tami Wed
Last night we were part of a heartwarming event, the Yuen Wedding. The ceremony was held at the Japanese Tea Garden in San Mateo. Tami was a gorgeous bride.

Under the Beach Weather
Since I’m under the weather (I caught Daddy’s cold) I decided to stay home and rest while everyone else went on a day trip to the Anvaya Cove Beach Resort. That was a mistake. Following are photos from Sandy’s SD800.

On July 28, the President gave a State of the Nation Address before the Congress. Needless to say there was a protest.
Wine Depot
Tonight we met some of Sandy’s former coworkers at the Wine Depot. It’s a small wine shop with an even smaller restaurant in the back. Dinner was excellent! I had bacon wrapped lamb chop.
