Last week Dallas’s Uncle Dee, from Kauai, was in town for a conference downtown. Aunty Kathy and cousin Casey, who now lives in Seattle, came along for the trip. They were all staying in a hotel not far from my office so we got to see everyone a few times. We went to dinner at Harry Carray‘s, Dallas took them to lunch at Revolution Brewing in our neighborhood, and these photos were taken out at Aunty Gail’s, in the suburbs, where we ordered in Portillo’s Italian beef sandwiches.

It was nice to see everyone again. I’d only met Casey one time before – at Tandy & Chris’s wedding in 2005. I think she has lived in L.A. (for college) and Seattle (working at an indie record label) the whole time that I’ve known Dallas. We’ll be seeing Uncle Dee and Aunty Kathy again soon, when we go to Kauai in a few months. A FEW MONTHS!!!
