We had an unexpected night away in Palm Springs, unfortunately due to the passing of Jake's beloved Uncle Bill. We left Abigail and Bryony behind (they had school and they spent the night with BFFs) and just took Darcy with us. (I do not recommend bringing a 22mth old to a military funeral, by the way). Jake took a couple of hours to drive me around and show me the area/house his grandparents owned where he spent many summers. It was a memory lane thing for him, which was disappointing because a lot of it was not how he remembered, and not in an improved way. Anyway, there was much rain, a nice dinner with Darcy as our date at the famous Lulu's, an early night, a quick breakfast stop at Koffi (our favourite coffee joint anywhere) and then home again.
RIP Uncle Bill - you were so obviously respected and loved.
