on our way out of town saturday, jg and i stopped by karen's for a brief visit. last time i saw karen was two months ago. anyway. we got to meet the new family member, cozmo.
i'm not a fan of boy dogs but this little guy is a charmer. i could swear he was smiling at me.
hopefully he'll charm karen right into passing waffles on to me.
i took that picture of jg's sister and her husband on the side of the road in los olivos. they visited us for an extended weekend so we made like tourists and went for a wine tasting tour on saturday.
seen at the entrance to j woeste
being the non drinker, i took a walking tour of los olivos, ending up at the local nursery browsing and taking pictures for almost an hour.

sunday we took advantage of the improved weather and went for a hike up romero canyon. when doug+amy were in town some ten years ago, we hiked the same loop except in thick fog. they were never convinced that there's ocean view until now.

kids these days
this morning we went for a fancy breakfast at the boat house. i had to work for most of the day but we did manage to have dinner together before doug+amy headed out. the weather hadn't been ideal but we did our best to entertain. i hope the georgians enjoyed their stay.
