Las Vegas

The Regusci/Foster gang had a heckuva time in Las Vegas! Dinner with the Pope and a full day of pool time! Nana and Papa scoped out a speakeasy called 1923. The pics start here.

 

Tehachapi, Again

The trip from Nipomo to Vegas was pretty boring. We did have a fun breakfast in Tehachapi at Kelsey's Cafe. The photos start here.

The Weekend

The big trip on Saturday was to meet Jon, Heather, and their twins at Vincent Winery. Two hours flew by! Earlier Saturday morning, Jamie visited the San Luis Obispo Railroad Museum to get a set of photos of their model railroad (click here). Sunday brought a trip to Oso Flaco Lake, always a fun, manageable hike. All the photos start here.

Cass Winery & Lopez

While the Fosters did horseback riding and wine tasting at Cass Winery, the Reguscis et al took on Lopez Lake. All the day's photos start here.

All Play!

What a great event at the Foster's Nipomo house with all the Foster kids and Foster/Regusci/Kreb grandkids! And what a playground the yard proved to be. Clearly, everyone had a great time. All the day's photo start here.

Errands always go better with ice cream!
Especially after buying a set of tires!

The Day after the 4th

Mornings are great times for games. Today we were back to the Mexican Train Dominoes game. Following a trip to Cowgirl Cafe and the Nipomo Native Garden, we settled into some quiet time and prep time for tonight's dinner with Bob, Sandy, Julie, and Lee. Spaghetti Carbonara was accompanied by a great salad and an amazing truffle dessert accompanied by a McKeon Phillips 2005 Port that Julie had "laying around!" To cap the night, the kids did a fireworks display. And thanks to Julie, we now have a keepsake McKeon Phillips wine bottle.

Smith & Hook and Dunning wines
went well with the homemade sourdough
bread that Jen made.

Julie's Truffle dessert

Don't let the sediment fool you.
The Sir Winston Port was great.

4th of July

We started the day with a game of Five Crowns, but have yet to play the final round (13-card hand, kings are wild). Then swim team practice at AG High. We knew there was going to be a parade going through Nipomo and tried to avoid it, but as it turned out, we end up IN the parade, at least for a short while. Lastly, we all went to Gibson's house for all kinds of afternoon gaming (volleyball, horseshoes, etc.), dinner, and fireworks. And, of course, meeting up with all the Reguscis who made it to town the day before. All the day's photos start here. The new Yeti and some dry ice kept the ice cream sandwiches solid for hours!
