Summer 2022
I finally made the time to write about our summer. After two years of not traveling, this summer was a welcome change. The summer went by in a jiffy – maybe I should say summer vacation because in California, summer is not over until end of October. Our summer vacation was super busy yet relaxing…
Summer Camp
Sarath went to a week long summer camp with the boy scouts last week. This was the first time he was away from home for that long. I think I was more nervous than him which was probably expected. It is always harder on the parents than the kids. They are out there having fun….
