a long weekend with the cousins It was great to see Jim & Shelly again. I hadn't seen them since Jim returned from Afghanistan back in 2005. At that time they had only 1 son, Jack and now they've got Owen as well.
We spent some time in San Francisco with Jim and the boys on Saturday while Shelly finished up work and then on Sunday we all went over to Marin County for a little tour.
After they returned from a night in Napa, we took a cable car ride over to Chinatown for dinner.
