I can’t remember the last time we got together with Jim, Kelly, Steve & Diane. So it was with great anticipation that we met at the Chop Bar downstairs from their lofts. The food was excellent and the company even better.

The weather was very nice today so I ferried into the city to meet up with Sandy.
Got Wood
Tonight in a belated birthday celebration, we met Auntie Sachi & Uncle Russell for dinner at the Wood Tavern in Oakland. Happy birthday Auntie!
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 …

In the City
Tonight we ferried in to the city and took Geo to NikeTown. He did his best to conceal his excitement for purchasing his new shoes. Later we went to Angel Fish for an always excellent sushi dinner. Poor Sandy, she’s surrounded by Manly Men. It’s been nothing but drinking, eating and farting.
