Yesterday I rode with Helen and Jim to San Jose to have lunch with Joan and Dave at their new condo in San Jose. Dave is too run down from the effects of his chemotherapy to join us at Starbucks. Their condo is very nice, and Joan had fixed a very nice lunch. Helen and I agree that we do not want to make this trip very often, but we do not want to be unfriendly, so it is a somewhat awkward situation. In the evening I read some more of The Economist and watched the Olympics until time to pick Julian up at the airport at 10:15 PM. He and Alex had a good time in Cancun and visited several Maya sites. Alex finishes his internship in Connecticut in July and then moves to Los Angeles to start his residency in anesthesiology.
