July 30 2012  We have spent the last 3 days in Pismo Beach at our Family Reunion.  We had nice cool weather which everybody loved after the heat at all of our homes.  The farthest traveled from Utah and we had around 95 people come.  We spent the time visiting, eating, horse back riding, walking in the sand dunes and on the ocean beaches, wine tasting, golfing to name just a few.  Our room was great for serving and cooking food and we all fit for our meals.  We were one of the last out of camp after saying good-bys to rest of family and headed north for our summer trip.  We spent the night here in Morgan Hill which is near San Jose.  It was in the 90's here today, quite a change from our 70 's beach temp.  We plan to make it as far as Seattle and Idaho before coming back.  We will try to post every couple of days to let you know our whereabouts and what we are doing.  Buddy is doing Ok.  He doesn't make it up or down the stairs so we are carrying him in and out but he likes his walks and was very curious as to what was going on with all the families and dogs at reunion.
