Schuylkill River Trail walk, started at Boathouse Row (Bill, a rower in high school), a day of boats, trains and, yes, street cars!!

Three days in Philadelphia; three dinners at Parc Bistro Rittenhouse Square

Mother’s Day in Bethlehem PA, brunch at Historic Hotel Bethlehem, a visit to Bill’s alma mater, Lehigh University (open window dorm room at McClintic Marshall), fond memories of band practice at Lamberton Hall (tuba, of course!!)

Luke’s Lobster, down and under a brownstone similar to the West 50s NYC of yore - yummy 😋

Golf at The Boulders

Mom and Steve at the first tee

Fun round of golf with Steve at The Boulders, always a special time when we go to spring training. Such a beautiful golf course amid the cacti of the desert in Arizona.

Try not to WIFF !

The cacti are in the way !!

Spring Training - GO GIANTS!

Beth, Lynne showing off their ''true colors'

Wonderful weekend at The Boulders with Steve and Lynne and Mike. Went to two Giants games interspersed with a guided tour of the Frank Lloyd Wright Taliesin home, a visit to the Music Instrument Museum (MIM), the only global cultural music museum in the world, and the Phoenix Botanical Garden.

Watch out for those cacti needles, Bill !

Good morning, San Francisco!

The end of journaling our special 'holiday', especially crossing the Atlantic on the 101st anniversary of Bill's dad's crossing when he immigrated from Ireland to America.

Good morning, San Francisco!
