They're always after me lucky charms!

The green shorts. That was Kim's line, perfect caption for this photo. We were at Target looking for swimming trunks for me. The one apparel item lacking in my wardrobe. Excited about going back to Calistoga and staying at the Calistoga Village Inn again, with its several pools and mineral baths. A pleasant stay, whether you use the spa or not. Kim and Gray have gotten massages, and Kim got a mud bath once. I can't get used to the idea of someone you don't really know doing that to you, so that's not for me. Thanks, I'll stick to the pool.

We ate good food on the trip; there are many places to eat and all have very good food. We visited a restaurant for dinner we hadn't tried before, Brannan's Grill. Kim had the chicken breast and I had the angus hanger, which was a little rare but juicy and seasoned just right. We split the caramel cheesecake, totally outrageous. I wish I had taken a picture of that!
On the way home we stopped at Taylor's Automatic Refresher roadside burger stand in St. Helena to try the fresh halibut fish and chips.
It's a beautiful place, with the parallel mountains on east and west sides of the valley. The weather was warm and comfortable, the traffic (mid-week) was lite. I look forward to our return. A good visit, a good trip.
