Home at Lodi

Wow there is a lot of shit from California, and I only posted a fraction of the photos I took. In any event, this is the last post from our trip. The day before we left, we decided to take it easy. We spent the day in nearby Sacramento and the night in Lodi. It was a nice relaxing day since we had been running around quite a bit the past couple days. Some of the photos were taken with Cathy's p&s.


Nothing too notable happened in Sacramento. Some walking around, random shopping, and banana splits at Gunther's. The place has been around for about 70 years, and they make one hell of a split.


They were promptly eaten.


We returned to Lodi, did some more errands, and eventually setup the grill for dinner.


Meat and vegetable kabobs were on the menu.


Lots of random dishes. By the way, the produce around there is a lot better than in Chicago. I've been settling for wilted greens, bruised peaches, and sub-standard tubers for too long now.


Anyway, everything turned out pretty tasty.


We also enjoyed some killers mojitos, complete with fresh mint from Eric's garden.


I was sad to go. Roland was sad to see us go.


Clem was sad too.


See ya later (Eric and his flourishing veggie garden).
