Mom's 101st Party
The big day actually isn't until next Thursday but this was the weekend we could get everybody together. All five of her great grandchildren were there as well as two of her great-nephews and a great-great-nephew.
It was a surprise until the guests started arriving; then she caught on right away.
Mom had a lot of help opening her gifts. She doesn't see too well, so EAS read all her cards to her.
TCB borrowed a little video camera from my nephew and flitted around recording all the activity, with a running commentary. Unfortunately, she didn't realize that the camera needs to be moved slowly, so most of the video is just a blur. But we all really enjoyed watching her in action.
Amongst all the activity, there was time for some deep thought; or else there was something really interesting going on out in the street.
This is the end of Clue 5 on MS4. There are about 50 rows to knit in Clue 6 and then the first half will be complete.
The weather in SF was cool but very clear, no fog even at sundown. This is Fleet Week in the City and the Blue Angels were performing. We actually heard them flying at one point. I don't think they went over the house but they are so loud that you can hear them even when they're not very close.
Last night the low temp was in the upper thirties. Very unusual for early October.
