To Carmen's Birthday Party

We spent the night at the Fairmont Hotel. Sharon and I both did workouts in the room; I did a 10 minute Peloton Core workout. Although I had thought about going to the fitness center, I never got going.

We met Jack for breakfast at the Big Four Restaurant in the Huntington Hotel. I had a The Big 4 Omelet, Sharon had the Good Morning Nob Hill, and Jack had the Chino Valley Egg Sandwich.

Checking out of the hotel and getting the car, we headed towards Orinda. The plan for the day was Carmen's birthday party. After a quick stop at the store, we rolled up to Carmen and Drew's house at about 11:30 am.

Pam and Mike were already there; they had spend a couple of nights. I had a nice opportunity to spend some time catching up with Drew in his studio before people started to arrive. Clem, Lee, Daniel and Morgan got there pretty early.

Over the course of the day, probably 60 to 70 people showed up in waves. I regret not taking more pictures. In particular, we went out to explore the hillside below the house with Lee and Clem. I wish I had gotten some pictures and videos of them roaming the trails.

Sharon and I headed for home about 3:45 pm. The traffic was light. We were home by 5:30 pm.

We finished the day watching the Knicks beat the Spurs by the score of 94 to 90 to win the NBA Championship.
