I have been working in Richmond this past week, but make it home at least one or two nights during the week. On this Saturday I had a sailing race in Santa Cruz. The day was nice (70F) and sunny the wind was out of the north… and west …and east. There were such a ridiculous amount of wind shifts that the races were really a crap shoot. We decided that a trip to the bar would be better and only raced in two of the three scheduled races.

Singers in Lederhosen. I would ove to get a pair.

Sunday we went to Oktoberfest hear in Campbell. A lot of people there, and a lot of interesting characters. This guy with a bird came by and Brenda commented on it so of course got to hold it. She also petted the bird and was very excited about doing so.

This week we are at the Plugs hanging out and Keeping their son Trevor in line. Sunday night we had some other youth group kids over and were able to play Risk (the game or world domination). We did not have the time to finish, but I had everything but Europe and Australia and was obviously going to win.

Brenda with the bird. I was secretly hoping that it would crap on her, but it didn't.
