best coast trip yet?

I had such a good time with you guys, and appreciate the flexibility and help you gave us with our babies. I have a blast with you every time, but this particular trip seemed quite special. Maybe because we have kids of our own to enjoy. I think too Nicholas and Gabe are growing into a couple of witty and intelligent guys, and I really enjoyed hanging with those two this trip. They were making me laugh pretty hard in spite of some pretty banged up ribs (the surf was ruthless). Glad to meet Bernie, and see Ruby while they were there. Grandma faraway, you have it coming in pinnocle. Thought we were a team there until you started ripping on me. The rest of you...as always, a pleasure. Jenn, the food was wonderful, and I cannot thank you, Jan or the grandmothers enough for caring for those babies while mel and I were in some sort of zombie state. Jan and Larry---coast house was beautiful, and I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to spend time with you both there. Congratulations on the winnings!!! Brian, we'll have to catch up on that beer when our two little punks are caught up on milk and sleep. And I'll miss you most of all scarecrow. much love,
