Who Dat?

- Who dat? Jim and Linda of course. They made the long half mile walk over the park and we all did a picnic together. Hey dude those carrots were really spicy.
Another Beautiful Day

- This time we made a picnic in the grassy area a little away from the playground.

February 2, 2013 - Email Message - Hey Larry. Wanted to meet much earlier but got involved in a lot of stuff. Anyway next week is going to be a small party at our place. This is the information as posted on Facebook. POT LUCK HOUSE PARTY. Hey come and hang out with us before we head back to Japan in a few weeks. Gonna be pretty busy. This is a good chance to meet all of you in SD. Course you all can visit us at our place in Nara, Japan if you want. DATE – February 9, 2013. TIME – 4:00 pm until Sunday ???? – Hey same as Japan parties. PARTY THEME – This is a pot luck party. Be sure to bring a side dish enough to feed to football team. lol. Those of you intending to imbibe, be sure to bring alcohol for only you and your friends. ADDRESS – Will be sent via email to those of you who forgot. Be sure to ask for it. PHONE NUMBER – Hey we are phoneless (is that a word?) this vacation. If you wanna talk then send YOUR number via email (land line only) and you will be Skyped (again….is that a word). PARKING – Yeah sucks in a condominium. Limited parking and all that. Please park on Hyde Park Drive and make the long 30 second walk. RSVP – Pleeeeeeeese let us know if you plan to come. Small place and a lot of people. Need to plan. Probably shoulda called this the “PACKED LIKE SARDINES PARTY”. Hey gonna be a lot of fun. See you then. Anyway hopefully you can make it. Send email when you can.

- Facebook Post - ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL DAY. Was really warm again today like 80 degrees. Spent the day playing in the park.

- Facebook Post - Really nice meal at the Paris Hotel buffet in Las Vegas. Maybe someone drank a little too much wine tonight.

- Facebook Post - SUPER BOWL SUCKED, NFL SUCKS, BALTIMORE SUCKS. Yup only in America can you get away with murder and be awarded a Super Bowl ring. Pretty sad for those innocent kids out there who idolize these football players. What a joke. In Japan “you know who” would be out of professional sports for good. Anyone up for boycotting football next year? Come on now.

February 2, 2013 - Email Message - Hey Larry. This is the address. 6840 Hyde Park Drive, Unit C San Diego, CA 92119. Assuming you will be bringing your family. Will be really nice to see all of you again. Send email when you can.
Fun Party

- A few friends came over for a small pot luck party at the house today. Really been awhile to see some of you. Hopefully can get together again before heading back to Japan in a few weeks.

February 12, 2013 - Email Message - Larry. Hey it was definitely fun to see all of you again. Actually not going out for bagels but could think of a time to meet for dinner again. Send email when you can.
An Older Woman?

- This eight year old at the park really took a liking to Shai. He was shy at first but eventually began playing with her. They played soccer, football, frisbee, and even flew paper airplanes as shown in the picture.
Together Once Again

- Really happy my wife, son, and daughter all got to see each other a few times during this trip back home. The last time was over three years ago when Shai was only three and a half months old.
Can You Say Global Warming?

- Today it went up to something like 80 degrees. We went to the playground and it was actually a bit too warm for Shai to play. We decided to head back home and go swimming in the heated pool. Then we went in the jacuzzi which was a lot different than a Japanese onsen but nice nonetheless. We laid out in the sun and went back in the house around 3:00 pm as it began to get a bit cooler.
Again and Again

- This definitely turned out to be the favorite place for Shai this vacation back home. Cannot even count the number of times we went to this park in three months. With a new playground, plenty of open grass area, and a lot of animals and birds, this is the perfect place for a 3-year-old.
Feeding the Birds

- We took some old challah of all things to the park today and fed the birds. Shai really likes doing this. He got to see mallard ducks, coots, and seagulls. Mission Trails Regional Park is a wonderful place to take kids.

- Facebook Post - Hey was something like 80 degrees today. Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be changed regularly, and for the same reason.

- Facebook Post - A METEOR HIT THIS PLANET. Hey one of those who does not watch the news or read the newspaper. Usually get crap from friends who say you need to know what is going on in the world. Anytime telling them no doubt someone is going to inform me if a meteor is going to hit this planet. Then my wife came up to me and said hey a meteor hit this planet. Funny.

- Facebook Post - CHALLAH EATING BIRDS. Took some old Challah to the park today and fed a lot of birds who are keeping Kosher now. If sex with 3 people is threesome and sex with 2 people is twosome, then I understand why they call you handsome.

February 22, 2013 - Email Message - Hey Larry. Know this is really not much notice but doing a get together again tomorrow. This was the post in Facebook. Hopefully you guys can make it.

February 26, 2013 - Email Message - Howie, I enjoyed getting together with you all a few nights back. It was fun drinking wine and talking. I realize that you are leaving for Japan soon and have set plans for the this week. Lets get together once before you leave. Lunch any day, except Thursday or dinner in the evening would be good. Or if you feel like staying home and drinking more wine I could pick up a pizza from San Diego's best pizza place. Let me know. Larry.

February 27, 2013 - Email Message - Larry. Um anything is good. See you then.
