My body has traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved

Leaving on a jet plane






So, we'll be leaving town for a few days. Heading off to San Francisco for the Nike Women's Marathon which Roberta will be running in again.

Quite a great thing this marathon. Through Team in Training these women raise millions, yes millions of dollars for The Luekemia and Lympoma society to fund research on cures. And they have found some. When we were there in 2005 they had a speaker who had been cured by a last option new procedure developed in a research lab funded by the Society. Roberta actually coaches one of the groups now.

Of course there will be the obigatory time spent enjoying SF as well, one of our favorite towns.














And of course the trip to Sonoma









But as if this trip couldn't get any better, somehow I talked Roberta into a side trip to Seattle and the Curry Thief Bobbe!

I can't tell you how excited I am about that. Bobbe has already detailed our itinerary of culinary debauchry.

Oh yeah, and since I'm finally starting to get back up to fight speed (would you agree Mariah?), there might even be a friendly Moro dance or two!

We won't be back in town until the 27th so I may or may not post again before then.

Bobbe isn't that easy a target!

Careful with Bobbe he is tricky and bathes in curry so he may be a bit harder to latch on to. Not to mention his blinding techniques when he lowers his head to charge..LOL...you Careful Steve!
