Hard to believe Laurie turned 65 yesterday.

Her children, Jodi, Marni, and Peter ( aka “Willing Helpers” ) hosted a party in her honor.
A great time for friends and family to get together. Marni, husband Bryan and son Nathan flew in from Maryland to join in the celebration.

Congratulations Laurie and Family. You are truly blessed

To celebrate the season, many parents take their children to Justin Herman Plaza in San Francisco to enjoy some ice skating. As the schools let out for the Christmas holidays, it is a perfect time to enjoy a family outing.

A Drive Up the Coast

2009 December 10

Wednesday afternoon I drove up the coast from Santa Cruz to San Francisco and stopped at Ano Nueva State Reserve and the Pigeon Point Lighthouse. It was one of those sunny afternoons we get in early December and, of course, I couldn’t resist taking some pictures. Ano Nueva is famous as a breeding ground for Elephant Seals. This isn’t the season, but I was lucky to see one.

Pigeon Point Lighthouse and the surf were absolutely gorgeous.

Another reminder to always have a camera with you.

Fall in Golden Gate Park

December 5, 2009. Crisp and cool but the leaves are turning and the sun is shining.

The Conservatory of Flowers is beautiful as usual.
