Winter 2015

Family gathering in Portland at Flatbread... 
we had 'our' own corner of the restaurant.  Very nice!
Rachael was such a good sport... she was not feeling well, but she made the trip anyway.  
This is meant to be the celebration of our 42nd wedding anniversary... 
what a great tradition!
