I haven't been very good about letting you know what we've been doing.  Well, you haven't missed much.  What we've been busy with is trying to feel better and get healthy.  Our friends, Jan and Linus were sick when we got to California and it took a while for them to feel up for company.  Then Sean and Amy got sick with upper respiratory infections.  This past weekend I had a stomach bug.  Virus, or bad shrimp?  I'm leaning toward a couple of dubious shrimp at the sushi restaurant.  At least it seems we're all on the road to recovery now.  Thank goodness.

We have been spending some time with Jan and Linus.  Shopping one day in Brentwood and wine tasting in Livermore.  Anything more ambitious has been cancelled due to illness but we're having fun anyway.

Last weekend we went to Napa for a little wine tasting.  Went to one of our favorites, V. Sattui.  Now, this is pretty typical for this trip, so you'll understand we were not the least bit surprised when the electricity went out while we were tasting.  Thank goodness I downloaded the flashlight app on my phone.

We over there in the dark!

After wine tasting we ate at a great little drive in, Gott's Roadside Diner.

Yesterday we did part of the San Francisco 49 Mile Drive.  It was very busy, but kind of fun to drive around the city.  It was hard to take pictures but I got these from the car windows.

We've been dog-sitting with our grandpuppy, Lewis.  

Awww!

Sean and Amy left on Saturday for New,York to attend a memorial service for Amy's grandmother.  They landed in Detroit but the connecting flights to New York were cancelled due to weather.  Unfortunately they missed the memorial and,spent Valentine's weekend in Detroit, without luggage most of the time.  I know they'll be glad to get home tonight.  And I know Lewis will be happy to see them.
