Spring at our New Home


We are anxiously awaiting the movers arrival tomorrow; the delivery of our belongings! It will be like Christmas, I'm sure. The weather this weekend is HOT HOT HOT, in the 90's today. We spent yesterday driving to Petaluma to judge how long it will take to take Mark to the airport shuttle on Wednesday and it was about an hour ride...through Napa, beautiful wine country. It's a shame we're not wine drinkers because every winery has tour and tasting. We did agree that we will go to one during our tour here though. Mark's family drinks wine, so we hope they come and take advantage of the area. From Petaluma, we drove to the airport in San Fransisco to see if it was a trip I wanted to take by myself. We drove through the city and the temp was a good 20 degrees cooler on the coast. We came home via the Oakland bridge and even on Saturday the traffic bottlenecks on it. I said I would take him to either and he decided Petaluma would be easier, if not a longer day for him.
We went to the movies last night, something we seldom did before due to the distance. Here, the theater is only 10 minutes away! A wonderful date with the love of my life! We saw State of Play and both of us enjoyed the conspiracy movie.
The owner of our house apparently likes roses because there are at least a half dozen rose bushes in the yard. The flowers are huge and gorgeous! We're confused as to growing seasons here, the grass is brown in the summer and the nut trees in the yard (please, please, be pistachio trees!) are full of fruit that look like they are ending their cycle. I guess the agriculture will take some getting used to and I'm anxious to learn when things are planted and then harvested. The grapevines we saw yesterday looked like they were just sprouting, so who knows!
