Arrived safely! Here we have brother Larry and of course my sidekick, Gery Van Emelen. Or maybe I'm his sidekick. We're in San Jose, California at my brother Stuart's house. They are renovating the kitchen, so the place is a bit deconstructionist at the moment. | |
Gery and my brother Stuart, relaxing out on the boat. Working on our sunburns. Andersen Reservoir, Morgan Hill, California. | |
Gery and I swimming in the Reservoir. He doesn't like swimming that much but he jumped in, just to make my day. Aw, isn't that nice? I don't look happy, but that's just a leg cramp. Really I was thrilled of course...still am! | |
Gery takes a turn driving the boat. Whee! Can you hear the James Bond Theme playing in the background? | |
My dear friend James on the Pirate Ship at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. I'm on the ride too, of course. | |
Oh boy oh boy! Let's go in and see the Mouse! | |
Gery just can't believe he's about to go on a boat through a forest of shrieking dolls. We did, but...never again. | |
A storybook castle, a charming Belgian...have I mentioned that my life rules? | |
Gery negotiates our rental 'Stang through L.A. morning traffic. Great car. We drove from San Jose to Anaheim and back. Gery cheerfully did most of the driving...thanks Gery! |
