Sarah's parents flew home Monday afternoon, leaving us alone for a few days' respite. The highlist of their trip (for me, at least), was a visit to Apenheul to see our simian friends. The weather was fantastic that day, as, indeed, it was for about ten consecutive days. It's cooled off since, of course, so I'm back in long trousers again.
We actually only get a few days off from our fellow man, because this weekend, we'll have Geoff, Jason and Vivian staying with us. Ah, yes; it's all go at McKenna-Macdonald acres.
In fact, I met the three of them at the airport on Saturday. From there, Jason and Vivian went straight to Delft, where Jason is attending SANE 2006 this week. Geoff came back with me in the car and hung out for the weekend before heading down to Delft Sunday evening for the conference. He spent Saturday night in a hotel just around the corner from where we live, because the house was full with family guests.
