This past Friday, Carol and I left Oregon to visit family in California. We got to visit Jimmy, Johnny, Cassidy, Jacob, Bethany, Peter, Emily, Roberta and Fran (Roberta's Mom). We worked on a few projects around the house together, and made a few trips to Ace Hardware. And we went to the auto parts store and picked up a couple of lights bulbs that burned out in the van. I supervised and the kids did all the work :) Emily has a new light fixture in her closet. The filters for the air intake (heating and A/C) were all changed. After the work was done, we went out for dinner at Red Robin. What a fun time! Plus, we got things done :) I'll post more pictures from the coastal trip back to Aloha soon!
