It always feels good to be home again, but I must say that going to San Francisco to visit Adra and Jason was the perfect first family vacation. We didn't do anything wildly exciting, although Sahara would probably put the airplane ride and the carousel ride in that category.
We played a lot in parks which was great fun and we ate lots of yummy fruit and other food. We went to the Greens Restaurant - why o why don't we live in a city with lots of fabulous dining out options? and ate ice cream at Humphrey Slocombe. Check out their bizarre flavors.
And just like that we are back home.
We had a ductless heat pump installed before we left. EWEB offers an irresistable loan/rebate on these very efficient units and one of the sweet side effects of getting this type of heating system is that now we have AIR CONDITIONING!!! OK I'm a bit embarrassed to say I'm a native Oregonian and I am using air conditioning, but damn, does it feel good right now.
Meanwhile, I must harvest the rest of the garlic and water the blueberries. The laundry and dishes pile shall wait.
