Yesterday I had my usual Saturday at Starbucks and Safeway. Vanessa, Same, Beech, and Annie went to Los Altos and had lunch with Jason, Susan, and the girls. Joshua brought in some fast food for dinner. We ate while watching the Giants game on TV. In the evening I watched a DVD of the movie Miracle at St. Anna. It is a World War 2 movie directed by Spike Lee. It is based on a novel about black soldiers fighting in Italy. I do not think it is historically accurate, but as with most Spike Lee movies it is well done. I give it four stars.

This morning I took Maureen and Sam to Vanessa's house to have a Father's Day breakfast with the kids. Julian is still out of town, but he is due home this afternoon. The food was very elaborate and delicious, and Vanessa showered me with lots of Father's Day gifts, all of which I can eat or drink.
