Palo Alto

We arrived in SFO after a cross country flight from SAV via ATL. The Spring Break crowds will out in Atlanta but we got through pretty smoothly. The flight went fast since I sat next to Duane who was a career military man ( and I think some type of pastor) . He was very knowledgeable about spiritual matters and so it was a good discussion for me.

Once we got here, we got our rental car and headed to the Olympic Club which was not only easy to find but also easy to navigate, no security or hard-to-find places. We were able to find out where to park and shop in the pro shop which make today's golf game easier.

Sean had suggested we meet up with his cousin Katherine who is a student at Stanford University, so I thought that was a great idea. I made the reservation for us and we picked her up at her dorm and had a very nice dinner. She's very poised for her age of 21 and was very confident of her future, since she said (as modestly as she could) that all Stanford students are outstanding in their own way; she's no different. So the future looks bright not just for her but for our country. She' s planning to go to medical school after college and is interested in geriatrics. She's already taken a lot of medical type courses and has a lot of clinical work experience. There's lots of opportunity out there which was great to see.
