FUN DAY DOWN "MEMORY LANE"

Today Dad and I went to the Bay Area to pick up a BBQ for the house in Monte Claire. We decided we were so close to Hayward we would go check it out since we haven't been there in a long time. We started out by having lunch at one of Dad's favorite hamburger spots, Val's Hamburgers, and dinner, or maybe it was a second lunch at Casper's Hot Dog's. Dad said he couldn't leave Hayward without eating a Casper's hotdog. The minute he took his first bite of his hamburger he said "Wow! this is just how I remember them." He and Grandpa Doug use to go there all of the time. He also said that Grandpa did the electrical at this Casper's. The building and the sign on top are exactly how it was when they opened. We ended up driving by all of the houses we lived in, the schools we went to, and drove down many streets that brought both of us so many great memories. It was such a perfect day to get pictures of everthing. The only problem was I didn't have my camera. I guess this means we have to go again another day and repeat everything we did. It was such a fun day walking down memory lane. Boy, that comment really makes me sound old!

OLDEST OPERATING MCDONALD'S

After flying back to the Beach House from Arizona we had a couple days to relax before we had to return home to G.B. We decided to do a little exploring. We had lunch at Portillo's in Buena Park (We first ate at a Portillo's in Chicago and loved it) then onto one of the oldest McDonalds. We had to get a hamburger and fries just to say we did. It brought back alot of memories for us as it was just like the one we had in Hayward when we were growing up.

The "BIG" Move

Paige, Crew and Mimi staying cool!
Paige and I thought this plane was painted really cool! On our way from O.C. to Phoenix.
We couldn't go to AZ without eating at Oregano's. So Yummy!
Oh Yes, another favorite...Bahama Bucks
Lunch at Joe's BBQ
Jenny and Crew in front of their new home. From the looks of these pictures it looks like all we did was eat. Not so...Rick, Paige, and I flew to Arizona to help Jenny and Crew move into their new place. Jenny and Crew flew back from St. Louis but Wyatt had to stay a couple more weeks. He ended up surprising Jenny and Crew a week early. I think he really did miss his family and wanted to be there to greet his brother Kyle when he arrived home from his mission. We had so much fun helping them get settled in their cute little home and enjoyed spending time and playing with Paige and Crew. Thanks Paige your such a great babysitter!
