Walking, eating and enjoying an "empty" NYC on a long weekend with the Yankee and Pup.

Going up to Wino Land--maybe stop by Lake Berryessa and catch a couple of fish to go with the wine.

My parents are coming up from Florida on Saturday!

Hooray hooray! Mother is going to do some home-style cooking for us. Mashed potatoes, meatloaf, pound cake....I'm getting hungry just thinking about the heavenly aroma that's going to be coming out of my kitchen this weekend.

darlin dln,
would there be room at the table for two more and a pup?

dln, does the arrival of your mother mean your departure soon? I'm jealous!

Headed towards the island of long, looking for beaches , berries, and peaches. Like to sample the local vineyards and hoping the traffic doesn't drive us Would like the weather to cooperate for continued viewing of Mars while contemplating if we are all made of stars

Mama's in the kitchen because we're going to Italy!!! Bella bella bella!

The kids can't wait for us to go because they LOVE Grandma's cookin'.

JohnD-Very,very good!
We are doing lots of nothin'! Mr R5 will be glued to baseball,but is easily lured away by the words "hike","oyster" and "wine tasting". Perhaps a Farmer's Market in Pt.Reyes or Duncan Mills then off on a hike somewhere in dem der coastal hills. But dang, all those wineries waiting as we whiz by.
(on a road where the touristas do not go,he-he). Such marvelous choices...
Kal-play hooky from the back 40...it's a "rest" from Labor Day, tis it not?

Have a good one,all!

R5

dln, Where in Italy?
We're going back in Sept/Oct 2004 for Mrs Kal's 10th anniv of her 40th b'day.
Love it!

i'2, "I got plenny of nuthinnnnnn' and nuthin's got plenny of meeeeee..."

JD, Beaches or....oh nevermind.

Hi Kal! Next Thursday the sweet husband and I will be seeing some air time. Leaving the kiddoes behind and looking for some of that Italian romance Audrey Hepburn found with Gregory Peck! Our own Roman Holiday.

Four nights in Rome. Four nights in Sorrento. Four nights in Umbria. Last night in Rome again. We planned it all with Fodorite help. We've never been to Italy and this is our mighty big adventure!

Watch for a monumental trip report; coming your way mid-September.

unfortunately, not a darn thing going on this weekend. We just got back from a trip 3 weeks ago and have another vacation planned for October. This weekend is our turn to take care of other people's pets while they are gone...

Headed to the lake for another crazy, beer infested throw down. At least it's not supposed to be 100 degrees this weekend!

As a wise man recently said:
"Pour me something tall and strong, make it a Hurricane, before I go insane. It's only half past twelve, but I don't care. It's 5 O'clock somewhere!"
