Fun Fact:\u00a0Hide And Seek<\/strong> – It’s commonly believed that a bride wears a veil to present herself anew to her groome, but that’s not quite right.\u00a0 The authentic tradition started with brides protecting themselves against evil spirits.\u00a0 In creepier Roman news, brides were draped from head to toe in red sheets to make it appear they were ablaze.\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 To scare evil spirits away, of course!<\/em><\/p>\n

We stayed over an additional day courtesy of Irene!\u00a0 We were invited to a family get-together on Saturday morning and then to dinner with the newlyweds later on in the evening.<\/p>\n

On the way to Diane’s we saw many cherry trees.<\/p>\n

\"\"

The trees were all over San Jose.<\/p><\/div>\n

Diane put on quite a brunch; we stuffed ourselves.\u00a0 It was great to visit everyone and introduce Dr. Mary to the family.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Dang, it was a spread fit for a kind!<\/p><\/div>\n

Diane and Mary took a tour of the backyard.\u00a0 They got along swell, and I believe Mary feels at ease with the “folks.”<\/p>\n

My sciatica was giving me fits, so we departed around 1:00 PM so I could get horizontal and get some relief.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Tales of the tall tree were told!<\/p><\/div>\n

The tree is probably one hundred plus feet in height. OK, here it is:\u00a0Why did the tree get stumped?\u00a0It couldn\u2019t get to the root of the problem.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Dang, it is a monster tree!<\/p><\/div>\n

Of course, we talked about our dogs.\u00a0 This cartoon is just about right!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After resting for a while, we went to the Dry Creek Inn and met with Lisa and Patrick.\u00a0 We had an amazing dinner laughing the entire evening.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Cute couple!<\/p><\/div>\n

We tried their specialty drinks, and we could not remember what they were!<\/p>\n

\"\"

Time fr a drink!<\/p><\/div>\n

We were back home y 10:00 PM and watched FoxNews to see the latest on the war situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
