Memorial Day Weekend Brunch at Shoreline with our Chicago Family

Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it

—William Arthur Ward

Just past the Shoreline Amphitheater sits Shoreline at Mountain View, California, a 750-acre wildlife refuge and recreation area on the SF Bay, located in the heart of Silicon Valley. We had Brunch yesterday at the Lakeside Cafe with Cecile's brother Mark Weiner, wife Barbara and Ilana and Zachary who enjoyed an hour of paddle boating while I did a two mile walk on my favorite trail around the lake and and along the Bay. The weather was accommodating, the colors were bright and cheerful and it seemed everyone was out to embrace this beautiful day.
