A Visit From the Evans Family

Last week we had a wonderful visit with our good buddies from Virginia. Bridget, Johnny, JJ, Keegan and Annabel were out in the Bay Area for a wedding, and they were able to spend a couple days at our house. In addition, Henry and I tagged along for a day on their trip to Wine Country. I can't believe that I've never been to the Napa area before! We had a blast touring a couple different wineries. I sampled some wine and Henry sampled some grape juice, and we both enjoyed the beautiful scenery and spending time with friends. Let's hope it won't be another three years before we see the Evans family again.

You can always just pick up on friendships with good friends no matter how long the separation has been.
