I Guess That's A Good Thing

We just returned from our first vacation in six years!  Other than short visits to family in Detroit, we haven't had a real vacation since 2012.  We flew to San Francisco and spent a week with our friend who used to live here in Michigan.  I've know him since Ray and I had the bed and breakfast.  He stayed as a guest and our friendship grew.  So that has been almost 20 years now!  It was a much needed getaway for both Drew and me.  Our friend took us all around the city...he was our own personal taxi service and tour guide.  I have been to San Francisco many times...mostly for work and a couple times for pleasure, so I was a bit familiar with the city but it was so nice not to have to drive.

It is now March and spring is just a few days away.  Easter is early this year, April 1st.  We will do our traditional Easter egg coloring on Friday night and celebrate on Saturday with a group of friends.  Then I will have my own Easter dinner on Sunday with just a couple friends of ours.  I am thinking I will do the "Rack of Lamb Genghis Kahn."  A recipe Ray had from "The Lark" restaurant in West Bloomfield.

It's St. Patrick's Day...sunny out and still a bit chilly.  I don't have anything planned to "celebrate" except for working.

My life is boring right now.  I guess that's a good thing.  - Jimmy
