Sorry I wasn't around yesterday. Sunday night my good friend, Gerry, from Washington, DC suddenly came to visit. He and I used to spend almost every day together over the 4 years I lived in DC. So I took yesterday off and we spent the day being tourists. We even did the one thing I've always wanted to do, but never did-- walk across the Golden Gate Bridge; it was a beautiful, clear day and walking across was so breath-taking. Gerry's here for the week so I'm a bit overwhelmed, but it's still a lot of fun. I'll still be posting here as I can.
