Weekend in review
We had a busy weekend, Saturday we had a CF event where we volunteered at a Senior Center and colored Easter Eggs. It was a fun event, and we got to hear some really interesting stories from these wonderful folks. Then in the evening we had dinner to celebrate Shveta's birthday and went bowling.
Today (Sunday) we went hiking in Sunol Regional Wilderness again, this time with Meesha and Pritesh on the Indian Joe Nature Trail. It was a beautiful hike with tons of wildflowers, streams, and greenery. Towards the end it got really windy up on the ridge, and then started to rain. Pritesh was without a raincoat, so he wrapped a tarp that I had with me around him for protection :) Here are pictures from both the event and the hike/birthday party.
