What A Day!

What a day Jim and his dad had today!  Here is what they did:

1.  Went to Gates of Heaven to visit Babcha and Pop's grave.  Steve reminisced about them and his happy moments.
2.  Drove through Los Altos with Steve pointing out things and places he remembered while living there.
3.  Drove around El Camino Hospital.  Steve remembered where his office was and made Jim stop while he told him about his patients and work.
4.  Went to the property he bought in 1962 and raised his family.  Steve was confused about the new house that was there - it is a mega-McMansion - but remembered many of the surrounding homes and who lived there.
5.  Drove over to Foothill College where Jim played soccer often.  Steve remembered using one of the first 8mm cameras to record Jim's team. (We may have to pull those out of storage!)

They came home and had pastrami sandwiches for lunch.  Steve was chatty and so happy.  He knows.  He remembers much more than others give him credit for remembering.  Such a lovely day!
