June 4 - Drew’s Birthday 🎉

37 years ago, a very special person came into my life … Drew. He brought lots of laughter and joy to our lives. He loved reading books, playing GeoSafari and learning about the presidents. His brain was a sponge. He just soaked up knowledge.  Today he’s a professor at UC Davis. Even though I won’t see you on your actual birthday, we’ll party on Saturday. 

A few pics of Drew’s life from about 1991 through graduation at Northwestern in 2016. 

Shannon packed up Arlo and the dogs and we went for a walk around the neighborhood. 

Doesn’t this flower just beg to tickle someone. These flowers are prolific here in Nevada City. 


The other native flower is the sweet pea vines you see everywhere you walk or bike. Shan’s backyard is filled with the pretty pink flowers. 

Back at the RV, Arlo loves to read. This book is about Arlo and Pap. And YES, Lenny is jealous!

Sitting at the table in the RV, Arlo is eating hummus, with his fingers, of course.
