The picture is a helicopter sucking up water to fight the bush fire near Big Sur.A relaxed departure, 9am, saw us have an easy 1hr20min drive to Colleen and Kevin’s place in Concord. After an obligatory cup of tea (or 2 or three) our car was used for transportation to transport people to the Buck’s barbecue and cricket game.
Because the young men were organizing the event, it didn’t quite go to plan. They forgot half the food (but not the drinks) and the barbecue utensils. The cricket game was a pleasant affair where everyone had a bat or two and a bowl, but it only last an hour or so as new had to catch the BART into San Francisco.
The place for the Bucks was a restaurant along Embarcadero. Kevin and I lasted till 10.30 and caught the BART home. Ben stayed longer and bunked on Justin’s hotel room.
The girls stayed home at C&K’s place then went shopping in Walnut Creek. The visits to Ross’ Marshall sans Nordstrums were a great success.
