Welcome to the first post of the sixth year of this blog. (Click “It Started Here” to see the first post, from 12/2/2018.) I’ve been pretty consistent about keeping it going.
So the only thing scheduled on this day was lunch with Cousin Darlene and her partner Jessea. They live in Oakland, and we had a very pleasant lunch at a cafe in the Rockridge district, a nice neighborhood shopping street. Then we went to the home of Carol Aust, a painter from whom I have bought paintings before. She was having an open house at her home, which conveniently is only 2 blocks from where Darlene and Jessea live, showing new works and some things by her daughter. There wasn’t a lot of interest so we didn’t stay long.
In the course of the day I had birthday greetings from Laurel, from Dennis, and to my surprise, a video call from Marc Lacrampe. So I’m well congratulated for being a year older.
