Today the kids bought me lunch at Sakoon in Mountain View. I’ve been wanting to try this place for a long time. Of course I forgot to take a single photo. Thanks to Tami, Chris, Rick, Jen & of course Sandy.

I’m a 49er
I finally learned after 49 years to play it smart and take the day off from work on my birthday. We were visited by a pair of Canada Geese in our backyard panhandling for food. I don’t know if that was some kind of omen. We had a great breakfast at Ole’s right here in …
HB Jen
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.
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.

Daniel’s 3rd
Today we made a trip up to Natoma Park, for Daniel’s third birthday. Tons of food, kids, cake and games to satisfy all of us. Although my G10 let me down as it was too slow to keep pace with blinding speed of those kids. Therefore I’ve had to supplement the blog with some of …
