Visitors

Helen and her girlfriend Mary arrived from NZ on Friday for a brief visit. I had spent the week in Dallas/Plano Texas so Sharene picked them up from the airport a few hours before I landed. It was a really fun weekend.
Friday night we took them to our fav local sushi restaurant. Saturday morning the 3 of us went running along the coast before we all headed into the city to Golden Gate Bridge, Mexican food, the Mission, Casto and a little drive by of Moultrie street.
Sunday was more outdoor adventuring, heading down to Santa Cruz to the redwood forest for a hike. The trees are impressive and it's a pretty walk. The kids had stayed at Sharene's mom's so we swung by there to make introduction and pick them up. Madi and Brax were very sweet and funny, providing evening entertainment. It was great to see Helen; realizing we have known each other for 15years!
I am writing on the plane heading to New Jersey. Exciting week as Sharene flys in Thursday night. We are spending the weekend on NYC, adventuring. Staying on Times Square we have a couple of fun thinks on the list, mostly sightseeing. Hotel location has us in the hub of things so easy to be spontaneous. I am hoping we will be able to bring the kids over at some point too as their cousins live in Rhode Island. Sharene isn't convinced about NYC in the winter...but I think a trip at Xmas time in the snow would be magical. Meanwhile I am hoping to get to see some of the fall colors as where I work is very "green" but promises to turn golden at some point.
