VANCOUVER, BC - MAY 2009

ROMANCITO'S FIRST INTERNATIONAL JOURNEY!

SAN ANTONIO - MARCH 20009

ROAD TRIP WITH THE G-PARENTS. A LITTLE CENTRAL TEXAS, ARABIC FOOD, GAMBLING, AND VIOLET. ROMAN LEARNED THE FAMILY BUSINESS, AND I'M NOT TALKING DOCTORIN'...

THE DRIVEWAY WAS OVERWHELMED WITH THE LOCAL FAUNA. NONE WERE EXECUTED DURING THEIR VISIT.

VIOLET AND HER DOLMA AS GOOD AS EVER.

YOSEMITE VALLEY, NAPA, SONOMA, SAN FRANCISCO - APRIL 2009

Second National Park, First California Trip - slated to be a week long adventure in Yosemite with Anthony Ledakis.

Our favorite resort, the Yosemite Bug was not exactly the W in Midtown. Also, it was freakin' snowing in Yosemite Valley.

Romancito's first time to see snow. He slept through the whole thing.

Slight change of plans takes us to San Fran and then to the wine country. Everything smells so much better up here. Even the dirt. Romancito is smitten with Anthony, and vice-versa. Muir Woods, cathedral and Muir Beach...stunning.

Easter weekend in the wine country...not exactly ruffing it.

What was
the name of that punk kid at the Muir Woods...he was a punk!

HOT SPRINGS NATIONAL PARK, ARKANSAS - MARCH 2009

ROMANCITO'S FIRST TRIP INTO THE WILDERNESS. SHORT FLIGHT. HE SLEPT A LOT MORE THOSE DAYS. OUR FIRST HIKE WAS ALMOST A DISASTER THANKS TO STONED DUDE NEAR THE WATER TOWER POINTING US DOWN THE WRONG TRAIL! SHOUT OUT TO YA, STONED DUDE! WE SURVIVED ANYWAY...HA!

FORTUNATELY, LITTLE DUDE SLEPT FOR 2.5 HOURS IN THE BABY BJORN.

BED AND BREAKFAST WAS NICE. IN THE WOODS NICE FOLIAGE. GREAT BREAKFAST. Bartee Meadow B&B…….In The Woods. WE GOT BATHROBES.

THEN OFF TO MAMA'S HOMETOWN TO MEET THE FAM. EVERYBODY LOVES ROMAN! VISTA DEL STIGLER.
