Visiting Family

This day was dedicated to visiting my family in San Jose. Herman and I started the day by picking up a mess of food at a Dim Sum restaurant in San Francisco, and also stopping in at a Lee’s Sandwiches in San Jose before showing up at my Mom’s house at 11:30. Mom, my oldest sister Gail, and my brother Richard were there to join us for lunch. Also present were my nephew Trevin and great niece Grace.  It was hot, so we sat out on my mother’s patio and talked for hours before unpacking all the food. I think everyone enjoyed the meal. Not sure if they have ever eaten Dim Sum before. My mother—age 92—is looking well and getting around the house rather well with the help of a walker. She still gets out in her garden to pull weeds a few times a week. We ate some of her tomatoes, and boy were they great. That's me in the brown shirt.
