Today we had brunch at Pappos, then followed that with an X men movie.





Today we celebrated Sandy’s Birthday. I suggested going to Taco Bell and she could order anything off the dollar menu… She instead wanted to go to Tribu in Union City.





Flew in around noon, done by 5. I had to fly 2400 mi just to have dinner with Teddy & Christine.




Flew out at 1:15PM in pouring rain. Have a nice vacation Teddy & Christine.
We had a mini Italian reunion this morning at Yank Sing in San Francisco. The Dim Sum was excellent and of course it was great to see the Asato’s.





I usually go to our local Veterans park to photograph the Memorial Day events, but this year I forgot and committed to a family outing in San Francisco. It didn’t feel right skipping this tradition, so I went out to the Golden Gate National Cemetery in San Bruno yesterday to shoot a few photos to memorialize those who served. I have never been there before and could not believe the scale of this place.

















The terns were daring me to shoot them. I could not for the life of me get a good shot so I made a composite.

There should be a 3 day weekend every month. This lazy Sunday afternoon Sandy surprised me with a linguine & clam dish for lunch.


We rescheduled numerous times but finally got together with the Nierva’s at Angel Fish here in Alameda. The girls were adorable.







Sandy bought a chocolate chip cookie mix a while back and it’s been taunting me… so I made it.
