Back East

Well I have made it back east to visit with my family and attend the wedding of my cousin Josh safely. Carol and Bunky were down from Vermont and so we all had a tender dinner of salmon, roasted vegetables, tuna, chicken, potatoes, & wine, finished off with homemade brownies 4 different variety of icecream with kalua poured over the top. Having spent the night at the Oakland airport so not to miss my 630am flight the night before (and not really sleeping) it was a welcome relief to sleep so soundly on a flat surface. Today we drive down to Baltimore for a few days of wedding festivities....Tapas tonight, wedding tomorrow, and a "bluegrass BBQ" on Saturday. Not sure about Sunday. The weather is unusually cool and crisp with all the rain that has been here in the mountains but I already miss the salty air of the bay area.
