Detayls

Moira and Robyn Taylor from Wellington, New Zealand came to visit the Taylors on their way home from New York in Early November 2009.

Robyn had run in the New York marathon the previous weekend with a time of 4 hours and 27 minutes. This was only her second major marathon. Her previous was in New Zealand. Her sisters Moira and Alison and her brother Alec went with her for support. Alison and Alec then returned to where they are living. Alison is working in Indonesia and Alec in northern Canada.

We took the sisters to the top of Twin Peaks in San Francisco to get good views of the bay and then took them for a Chinese meal in Chinatown. We traveled on a Cable Car for a few blocks on the way.

On Sunday we all went out to Tony’s for oysters and seafood in Marshall followed by a visit to Point Reyes Station.

Jeanni got a new iPhone and needed some advice. We all needed breakfast. We all went to the Sleeping Lady Cafe in Fairfax.

The other flower was a gatecrasher but my oh my don’t they grow pretty around here?

What could be finer? A day out with Mitchell and Helen in West Marin with BBQ Oysters and sea food to eat. A visit to Point Reyes Station with coffee from the Bovine Bakery. Some browsing at Toby’s Feed Barn.

Then home to introduce Tas to Mitchell and Helen. Perfect.

The Clancy clan decided to hold a Barbeque at Stinson Beach on March 28, 2009.

This turned out to be the first gorgeous sunny day of the year so everyone else came too! We had a wonderful time and watched with some amazement as a bunch of young teens got busted for some infraction. The Park Rangers lectured the poor kids until their ears started to bleed and then issued them tickets for around $150 before delivering them into the arms of their thrilled parents.

(No pictures – would you try and snap the long arm of the law in the commission of their duty?)

The frisbees flew and the hot dogs disappeared. It was a glorious day.

On the way to attend Emma and James’ wedding in Southwell in Nottinghamshire, a few pictures were taken.

We took a wonderful trip to the Black Hills in 1998 with our parents. Here are some of the pictures from when we stopped in Yellowstone and the buffalo came past.

They seemed fairly unconcerned with our presence and just moseyed on along.

On a different day we stopped at a Prairie Dog town and spent some time just hanging with them.

At this time of year the Flowers always start to appear. Here they are in a photo album called Garden.

Here’s a sample:

Audrey kindly sent along some pictures of Rita’s garden in Rustington as it looks at the moment.

See the pictures under 2004.
