Picking up the story where I left off, in honor of our 30th Wedding Anniversary, Roger and I took the Coast Starlight from Seattle to Oakland for a few days in late April. We were met at the Jack London Square station by my niece and her two children. We then drove to Tilden Regional Park in Berkeley where we had tons of fun riding the Redwood Valley Railway, a carousel, and visiting the Botanical Gardens.
We stayed in Berkeley that night and took BART to San Francisco the next day. In S.F. we spent a lot of time at the Ferry Building and riding streetcars and cable cars. It was quite the transportation holiday. Here are some pictures: pictures of trip

A week after we got back I was on the go again to Seattle for a meet up of some Metro friends for lunch and then a Mexican themed party at my friends Diane and Craig’s house.
Meanwhile, Spring is busting out all over here at Thornbush. We’ve been gardening, mowing, making raised beds, and enjoying the outdoors through walks with friends.
Partied with friends the week of my birthday and then I was off again on another trip, this time to Portland to attend the Association of Northwest Weavers Guild’s Annual Meeting. My friend Karen came down with me to visit her daughter. And I also managed to see my dear friends Lou and Wes and their dog Micro.

Now I am actually going to stay home for awhile. I’ve started a new random weave sculpture, we’ve got some home renovations planned, and of course, there is always the gardening.
