California

We went to California to attend Burt's family reunion and be with Burt's two brothers and his niece and nephew. I must say that the entire week was extremely well planned ,(thank you Chester!) , and packed with wonderful things to do. I found that these three brothers share many of the same qualities: kindness , patience and generosity , just to name a few of them. It was a delight to spend time, listen to stories, especially from the Nisei (Burt's parents' generation), and to learn about the very proud heritage that this family shares. It made me realize how very little I know about my family background.

Ann, our trip was enhanced by your presence. Thank you for coming and wanting to know about our family. Because of your curiosity, we all got to learn more about each other and our family.

love
Mark

Thanks Mark. I forgot to ask you...do you also color code the hangers on your clothes and alphabetize your CD collection? =)
Love,
Ann

Ummm NO I don't do any those OCD things... I put little effort into keeping things organized. How I keep neat is not to use too many things therefore everything stays in their place.

BTW I did not notice that with Chester either.
