A Day in Novato

Breakfast/Lunch in downtown Novato. Very good.

Matt driving some cars around a track.

Parts of downtown Novato are blocked off for a big weekend celebration.

The inside of a candy store and the world's tallest Nutcracker.

A couple of kids are caught breaking and entering. They were let off with a stern warning.


And finally, one of Joan's students looking for a better grade volunteers to looks after Mike and Matt while we old folks take off for Rickey's, just off the 101, attached to Inn Marin. Excellent food and drink: kind of takes you back to the 40s except no smoke, which is even better.

Oh, cool, K&C, I didn't know you guys were heading down there! I'll be going next month, and I'm so looking forward to seeing those wild grandurchins of yours. It's been too long...

:-)

P.S. If that's the candy store I think it is (the one in the shopping center near their house) it's AWESOME.

The candy store in on one of the main streets of old village Novato, I think it is called Grant St. I have no idea how they could move quickly the inventory they have in the store, but maybe candy is made differently these days.

“In beholding old stones we may feel our anxieties about our achievements–and lack of them–slacken . . . Vast landscapes [and seascapes] can have an anxiety–reducing effect similar to ruins, for they are the representatives of infinite space, as ruins are the representatives of infinite time, against which our weak, short-lived bodies seem no less inconsequential than those of moths or spiders.”—Alain de Botton in Status Anxiety
