A Very Special Day

Today is Mother’s Day. It’s also the day that my Mom and Dad were married sixty-two years ago. It doesn’t get much more special than that! Check out these pictures taken at my parents’ house and at Greenbrier Restaurant, a family Mother’s Day tradition.

Pilgrimage

Me at Pebble Beach
For the past couple of years Vicki and I have visited the Isle of Oahu, and we did so again last week. This time though, we stopped in Monterey, California on our return trip. Maybe it’s because I have been to Oahu five times in two years, but I enjoyed Monterey a lot more. The weather is just like I like it...61-65 degrees during the day and high 40s at night. And it can get windy, especially near the Pacific.

My biggest thrill was walking on the 18th at Pebble Beach, one of the world’s most famous golf courses. I also saw the other PGA caliber golf courses in the area: Spyglass Hill, Poppy Hills, Spanish Bay, and Cypress Point. I don’t know how folks play in that wind coming off the ocean.

We also visited the other tourist attractions including the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Cannery Row, and Old Fisherman’s Wharf. Check out my photos here. Enjoy!
