An engrossing weekend

I had a hectic but an extremely enjoyable weekend after a long time. Friday night kicked off the weekend with a nice dinner with a few friends at Cascal. The food and the ambiance were quite nice. By the time I got home it was almost midnight , so i hit the sack. Saturday morning i went to REI to buy some stuff. We attended the Mtn View spring parade, and took some nice pictures. It was a pleasant day and the street was packed with boisterous crowd dressed in colorful dresses. There were also some performances after the parade, the ones from the Karate school were quite entertaining. People were gathered and were spending a relaxed afternoon on the lawns of Pioneer Park. It made me feel like Madison, sitting under the sun on green grass on a lazy afternoon.
In the evening, i went for some more shopping to replace my torn shoes, B had to buy some stuff too. After a long and tiring day, i retired quite early after returning home. Sunday morning, the day started quite early at 8am with the IPL finals, followed by a drive to Folsom to meet S & S. We had a nice backyard barbecue at their house, and we chatted for a while. We saw a nice sunset from the top of the hill, and then drove back to Mtn View. We got home only at 10:30 in the night, and i spent another hour and a half cooking.
So a pretty nice weekend with a diverse set of activities..

Shachi, feeling excited about such small & simple things in life is actually a benison, you should never lose that, not everyone is blessed with it.
