Last week we had a wonderful visit with our dear friends the Botts. Determined to do our best not to let physical distance keep us apart, we have gotten to see each other 3 times since we all taught in Vienna together. Considering we've each had a child in that time, that's not too shabby! While they were here, we had great weather - super news for the Michiganders (Michiganites?) who went home to ice storms - and got to show off Santa Barbara's beaches, parks, views, and foods. We also dreamed together about Dave getting accepted to U of M so we could all live nearby again, however, Dave got his letter from Michigan while they were here and, alas, it is not to be. (For those of you who are keeping track, UW said no too.) Anyway, here are some pictures from our visit.
The view at Shoreline Park
Enjoying the sun at out favorite local haunt, The Daily Grind
Botts at the beach
Eliza loved her first encounter with The Pacific
Dad and Nicholas dash waves
Nicholas and Eliza caught in a moment of civil sharing
Bleary-eyed friends saying an early-morning goodbye
