At Flinn and John's

At last we pulled into Novato, Cal. to visit my sister, Flinn, and husband, John. Flinn's great at organizing get-togethers, but we messed up a few with all our travel date changes. In spite of that she succeeded in rounding up a bunch of the Moores for dinner. Present was her daddy, Dick; brother, Tony with his daughter, Kirsten; brother Aaron and wife, Denise. Flinn and John's son, Dan, and his two children, Demetrius and Genevieve, were there in the afternoon hanging out.
Here's Kirsten with John.Dick Moore, is my step-daddy as well. Here with John checking out the ingredients of something that looks like salad lotion. OK then, dressing.Julie was going over some educational material with "Genebee" & "Demitri"
Here's Dan, her daddy.
He's a Yoga instructor who really gets a workout from his daughter!
We went out to the wetland marsh area for a walk with Flinn on a crisp morning....being very careful to avoid the Poison Oak!! (It was everywhere along the trail.)
Julie got another dose of fabulous flowers on this trip....and got to squeeze some Redwood bark. Such a delightful tree!Then, we had an afternoon to hang out with Daddy Dick at a retirement home, which is in much demand, called The Redwoods. (Hey, kids, you can send me there anytime--what a cool place!)

Actually, there's a huge waiting list to get in...
