REST AND RECHARGE

All day Thursday, I was sure it was Sunday. We slept late (or at least Amy slept late) in Oakland, and spent the morning doing some laundry--thank goodness, since Dave's clothes were starting to get stinky! We also got to lounge around and watch the first day of the British open while doing laundry, and even took a little nap in front of the TV. When we finally got motivated, we ventured out into downtown Oakland and found a fun burrito joint for lunch. We also found a gym and were able to spend a couple of hours slinging some weights and using the elliptical machines. Nice way to knock the cob webs off the old joints. Following the workout we rallied at Mike and Debi's place, split into a boy's car and girl's car, and struck out for wine country (Healdsburg, Sonoma County). It took us about an hour and a half to get here but when we did we were stoked! Great home, quiet location and awesome deck with a pool. Looking forward to a lot of fun from this point as we use it as a base of operations to conduct wine tasting.
