Heading to California

I'm flying out to California tomorrow to see my brother Greg graduate from the Defense Language Institute (DLI) in Monterey, where he's been studying Arabic for the past couple of years. I've been out to visit him twice before, in February and August of 2004. The first time we got to see Alcatraz, Lombard Street, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium. The second time we saw the A's play the Royals at the Oakland Coliseum. We also went down to Point Lobos and did some hiking. Aside from the graduation, I'm not exactly sure what's in store for me this trip, but it'll be a lot of fun.

So I'll be out of here tomorrow morning. But, like MacArthur, I shall return.
