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 …

The new Mrs. Nakamatsu
The day we all dreaded, I mean waited for. Jon wed Kathy in a beautiful ceremony by Brother Rick, at the Oceano Hotel in Half Moon Bay. Shanti Duprez was the hired photographer, but of course we had to shoot a few of photos for ourselves.
Wedding Dry Run
Today is the day before the wedding. We attended the rehearsal in ½ Moon Bay. This was followed by a family catered picnic by the Nakamatsu’s.

This year we didn’t have the advantage of having my cousin Jimi the professional chef, so we all had to step up and create a dish for our Mum’s Day 6 course brunch. After all the eating, it turned into a dog day afternoon with all the attention on Koa & Coyote Baker.
Ferry
We took the ferry into San Francisco yesterday to find a doctor to fix Brian’s eyes. We gave up on that and ate at Taylor’s instead. I got my 1st chance to try out my new Canon SX200IS. I like my G10 better.
Cait Land

We gave diners the choice of Ribeye Steak accompanied by mashed potatoes loaded with 3 cheezes and bacon, grilled asparagus, or Halibut on …
Pilipino leftovers
Sandy asked me to post her panorama of Mommie at work.
Koa
Today I met Chris & Tami’s new puppy Koa, the snoring, farting Frenchie. She so damn cute! She’ll howl until you pick her up just so she can fall asleep in your lap.
Random acts of Photography
Sandy came back from the Philippines with a camera full of photos.
