We Get To New Hampshire!

So you cross on over to California from Nevada, at least from the Las Vegas part, an there is no sign welcoming one to the Golden State. There are just signs saying that we recycle in this state, and that you need to put on your seat belt.

At least Hew Hampshire has a sign welcoming you to their state. Bi-lingual no less! Why can't we have bi-lingual signs in the two dominant languages of California, say Spanish and Mandarin? We have so much to learn from other places.

Such as the fact that the state government of New Hampshire sells Liquor!

Hey, is that a Kramer sighting?

So eventually we did make it to New Hampshire after visiting every single Hispanic neighbourhood in Northern Massachusetts. Here is little mini-San Juan Bautista reunion, east coast edition!

Throwing our gang symbols in New Hampshire. No cops around. Real tough with an iPad in hand.

Homeland Security did not stop this person from visiting

Heather's friend from High School, Robert came to visit us the day after Christmas, giving us a nice present for that day. We went to eat at Foster's right across the street from Salinas High School, the mortal enemy of every adult there. Here are Lizzy and Nicholas next to this giant Nutcracker at Foster's. I think they liked that it was so darn large.

Then we went to downtown Salinas and went to an Antiques Mall. We bought yet another Christmas ornament.

Afterwards, we went to the National Steinbeck Center where Robert was looking a present for a friend who is a Steinbeck fan, but we were too cheap to actually pay to go into the museum dedicated to our most famous Son. I told everyone to pose, and got the standard group photo. Then I told everyone to act crazy, and Ramon actually start to choke our guest! Heather does the standard Diva thing and looks like she is singing. Me? My soul became even smaller and blacker. However, they did have this cool shirt in the museum gift shop.

Overall, we highly recommend going to the National Steinbeck Center. Let us know what it is like, and maybe someday we ourselves will go.

Thanks for visiting us all the way from Los Angeles, Robert, and we hope to see you soon again! Go Dodgers!
