Long weekend in Lodi
We're in California at my mom's, where we've been since Friday afternoon (after leaving the house at 4:45am to catch our 6am flight).
My brother and my niece (the birthday girl) came up from Mountain View Saturday evening and we had family birthday dinner with them and my aunt & uncle, and then the four of us "kids" went out to see Star Trek Babies, which I enjoyed greatly.
Yesterday, as the temperatures loomed near 105, we mostly hung out at my aunt & uncle's pool all afternoon, allowing me to get in most of my recommended daily dose of sunshine *happy sigh* without actually coming away burnt. And we played two more games of Scrabble and finally tried out the whirlpool tub in the guest bathroom (scrunched, but still pleasant), and went to bed early.
I'm currently sitting out in the back garden ("yard" doesn't seem to do justice to this lush little square) by my stepfather's koi pond, after we all went out for breakfast this morning.
Although I know I missed a lot of cool stuff in Boston this weekend, and it will be good to be back tomorrow... right now, life is good.
