We ended the school year with a bang. Last weekend on Friday we helped celebrate a friend's 40th birthday in San Francisco in their gorgeous home (complete with private chef and every Belgian beer imaginable...amazing), and their/our kids stayed up past midnight. On Saturday we were too spent to attend the Walnut Creek Wine & Art festival, so we ended up seeing "Up" in a nearby theater. Big mistake. Nate ended up terrorized by the intensity and had to be brought out of the theater crying before it ended. Sunday we salvaged the remainder of the weekend by hiking in Joaquin Miller Park -- a huge but widely unknown park in the hills just south of Moraga. The big surprise was the hillside-long fountain that sprang from the amphitheater and worked its way down to the fountains and crumbling walls below.
