Peter and Claire (plus their poodle, Jack) arrived tonight to spend the weekend here as they search for housing in San Francisco. I made them dinner, we watched the Giants game ( a win!) and talked about our wonderful memories of their wedding and reception -- already two weeks ago!
They plan to relocate here from Pasadena in just a couple of weeks. Claire is to be working at Google's San Francisco office and Peter won a fellowship that helps post-docs find jobs in the private sector.
I feel like the luckiest man on earth to be about to have all six of my children and grandchildren nearby in this incredibly expensive area. The circumstances that have allowed this to occur are unusual and specific to us and this time.
Plus tonight is a good luck night. The Giants have just regained first place in the NL West and I got to watch that happen with my oldest son, probably the main reason that about 30 years ago I became a Giants fan...
