We went west this past weekend, enjoying a four day sojourn into that sunny hinterland known as California. No we did not want to see firsthand one of the few states crumbling into fiscal oblivion even more than Illinois. We went to see Jeff's college friend and hallmate, Dave Nguyen, get married to his kind and wonderful fiance, Mengting.
It was a picturesque day (heck, the whole time we were there was picturesque, it is California weather after all), and we had a wonderful time. We also got to wander off into Sonoma for a day of wine tasting and picnicking.
Oh, did we mention this whole trip was sans-Emerson? It was good to get away and remember what it was like for our first thirty one years of life and enjoy some beauty (and fermented grapes). But it was also great to get home to the little Squeaker, she's found a place in our hearts.
And did we mention Allison flew ORD-MCI-ORD-CLE-ORD-DFW-SJC-ORD all within a six day span?
