Trip Down Memory Lane




Today started off with a delicious bowl of Lucky Charms and Honey Nut Cheerios. After drinking the sugary milk we made our way out to the pool for some much needed vitamin D. Most of the Sacramentans we've met have been blinded by our bluish white skin. We've frequently heard "Wow! You're so WHITE!"


Due to our whiteness, we were forced to lather on SPF 4,000 to protect us. Laying in the sun felt sooooo good. We jumped in the pool to cool off and made our way back to our chairs and dried off. James started into Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged (page 8 of 500,000). After laying out in the sun for about an hour, our bluish tint has started to ware off.








Kim made us some delicious sandwiches, pasta salad and fruit for lunch, which left us feeling very pampered. James took Megan around his old haunts including the FedEx Hub where he used to work. We spent some time talking to Kathy Thurston, the Hub Manager about all the changes than have happened since James has been gone. We then drove to James' old neighborhood and stopped by the house JD and James lived in.




We headed up towards Old Sacramento, but before we got there we stopped at Arnie's house. Yes, that's right the Governator! The capitol is really a beautiful building. Unfortunately we got there at 6:00 PM so we weren't able to see much. We did a drive-by of Old Sactown because we were hungry for sushi.

















Wasabi hit the spot with some delicious miso soup, rolls and nigiri sushi, oh and a couple Sapporo's to wash it all down. We are officially in vacation mode!



Kim and Brad have been spoiling us with some great hospitality!! Thanks Kim and Brad for everything!!


Stay tuned for stories from wine country and hippie town...
