A Visit from Aunt Lin

Mini-Misner had a great weekend with some of his future aunts and Uncle Kit in San Francisco - Aunt Lin was visiting all the way from India! Perhaps inspired by Wimbledon (see previous post), we decided to don our "whites" (well, sort of!) and headed out to the lawn bowling greens at nearby Golden Gate Park. At left are Jason, Elizabeth/Mini-Misner, Aunt Lin and Uncle Kit with our fearless instructor, Bill. Lawn bowling is similar to bocce; more than you ever wanted to know about it is available, here. But do read up, as you might be fielding a team the next time you visit! Word on the street is that Jason and Elizabeth/Mini-Misner are the team to beat! Perhaps it was just good pregnancy luck for Elizabeth, as Aunt Lin and Uncle Kit sported the best form, while Jason came through with the clutch shots.

Aunt Heidy was also able to join us for a delicious barbecue at her and Uncle Kit's house. We enjoyed grilled peaches with fresh mint (if you have not tried grilling peaches or nectarines before, this is a must do), fresh salmon and tuna, followed by Chocolate Lava Volcano Cake - yum!
