Revels and Palo Alto

Saturday the 19th was busy. I have these photos in the wrong order. I went to the California Revels show with my sister and her husband. I then drove down to Palo Alto where Barbara had some friends over.

I hadn't seen Alipin in over 20 years. He asked me when I was coming to California and he explained he flies over here a lot since his son is now studying here. We were able to slightly overlap our trips so that was the crucial date to see him.

We also had a couple of friends of Barbara's as well as Ysabel, Alipin's son Malvin as well as his cousin Ruddy in the picture.

The Revels is an organization my brother-in-law used to belong to. Through Facebook, it turns out that two of our classmates are now in it. They didn't know each other but knew a lot of the same people, one of whom made the connection.

Here is the "Revels-Las Lomas" picture. Me (class of '82), my sister ('83), Will (English teacher), a former student of Will's, Dave ('83) and Tom ('82). The theme was Celtic/British and the story was of immigrants waiting for their ship around Christmas time.
