bar brat q
After dropping S off at LAX (off to various bits of Europe), the boy and I continued on south to a farewell bbq for a Pelican. The sad story is that Shawn and his family moved out here from Indiana as his company was setting up a new operation in Irvine. After being here two week, the company said, "just kidding", and told him they were moving everything (including million $ lathes) back to Indiana. Nice. So a group of up gathered at Ralph's house in Ranch Santa Margarita (hey, there's a lake there) to eat brats and toast the family. Welcome to California, now go home!
