Birthdays: Justin, Jennifer and me.

at Christian Brothers. Thank you CB for having a well-air conditioned gym and safe bleachers. I will remember to bring a jacket next time. Five sets for a win tonight against Inderkum – the high school closest to my house.

at Rio Americano High School (hot gym and old steep unsafe bleachers – that’s my age speaking – lol.

And, Happy Birthdays to Justin and Jennifer.

Carson had a baseball tournament all weekend at Ciavarella Park. The weather was great. And the new bridge along I-80 over the American Bridge is a great shortcut.

Just after you cross the bridge, Ciavarella is just off to the right about 1/4 mile away … down there:

But no access. Instead you have to ride about a mile farther and exit at Glen Hall Park, then ride a mile back. Great baseball game, lots of exciting plays.

As a senior, this is Sophia’s final year playing volleyball for Christian Brothers High School.

Today I learned Carson has never been a part of Little League. Instead it’s the Cal Ripken League. Sunday was a double-header at River Park.

I like it when school starts. This year, Avery/9th and Sophia/12th are at Christian Brothers. Carson is in 5th at St Ignatius. Once a week, I get to pick Carson up. This week, we played a new game for us. I can be competitive with this game. If it’s a memory game, he slaughters me.

Sophia and Lily played in a beach volleyball tournament at Sierra College on Sunday.

Carson wanted to play a few games before we went to lunch at Zócalo. I held my own with Spot It – each person flips over a card, the first person to name the same item on both cards wins both cards – Carson won but only by a few. He tried to find the Frozen memory game but couldn’t find it – thank you to whoever passed that game on to its next owners!

After lunch, the dentist.
