Friday 31 October 2008

It is noon and I have just returned from my morning outing. Vanessa, Annie, and I had breakfast at Heidi's pies. Afterward we went to Beech's school for a Halloween party. Annie was dressed as Raggedy Ann and Beech was a Power Ranger.

Last night I watched the Sharks game. They beat Detroit 4-1. That means they have beaten both of the teams that played for the Stanley cup earlier this year Pittsburgh and Detroit). The Sharks promise to be the only nationally competitive team for the Bay Area this year.

Last night I also finished reading the book Vanessa gave me, The Street of a Thousand Blossoms by Gail Tsukiyama. I had previously read her books Women of the Silk and The Samurai's Garden. Her new book is the best yet. I deals with three generations of a Japanese family from before World War 2 into the 1960s. It is not a really great book, but it is a pleasant read.
