...and we're back

we haven't been blogging because we've been out of town. we took a long mlk, jr. weekend to visit the bay area, family, friends, and our old stomping grounds.

first we headed to marin county on the marin airporter. i've always liked the stripes on these buses and was excited to ride one across the golden gate bridge to see anna and jeffery.

jeffery juices up anna's car jezebel with some homemade biodiesel

the beaches of santa cruz county.

You're showing lots of fur there on the beach Mr. Staple...

Do you think Jezebel and Liberace would hit it off if they met?

except for their differing fuel needs (gas v. diesel), liberace and jezebel are very similar. i think they'd get along swimmingly.
