Went to the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments dinner tonight. I didn't know that's what it was. I thought it was just the watershed people. I got to see John Laird, our Assemblyman, and tell him how much I adore him (he's also an old acquaintance from school days). Got to see Sam Farr say "I remember when none of the counties talked to each other -- Monterey never talked to Santa Cruz, and nobody even knew where San Luis Obispo is --" at which point a group of people in the middle of the room started cheering. He said it was the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary that made all the difference. I agree. The view from the top of the Monterey Marriott is magnificent, by the way. Also we walked around downtown Monterey looking for landmarks from when the nice fellow lived in a dolls house in Pacific Grove and cooked at a silly restaurant in Carmel (the dolls house being the first place we had sex).

This is a cheating Friday Foto -- took it last week.
