Day 28C (Bye CA!)

Some of you may know that Jen and I lived in CA between 1996 and 1999 (William was born in CA!). The night before we left CA (to fly back to NJ) we went to a local Park (Central Park in Santa Clara - where Jen, Erin and I used to take walks, etc...) to release some balloons (an orange one for Erin, a purple for Jen, 2 blues for the "Williams" and one yellow for our dog honey). As we watched these balloons float away, we said goodbye to CA. It was a bitter-sweet moment. Eventhough we really enjoyed our time in CA and knew we would miss it, we were happy to be moving back to the east coast.

There is a funny story about erin finding the same "set" of balloons in our back yard in Piscataway once we closed on our house (she was ~6-7 at the time), but we'll save that story for another day! Indeed, "God" knew what house was supposed to be OURS!

anyway... among the various other missions i had here in CA, I wanted to capture a few pics of this balloon release (kind of a "reenactment" as it were).... jen, erin, william... this is for you!

Love Dad.... I'M HEADING EAST!!!!!!!

See ya soon-ish... (~10 days)
