Sadly, Kyle had to return to Santa Clara today and I made the early morning run to the airport with him. Even though he has been home for over a month, my time with him was limited to just one week by virtue of my travel in Nepal. Jeanine, on the other hand, enjoyed the full duration of his stay and is already lamenting his departure. It was extremely nice to have the whole family together again and I could kick myself for not taking a single photo of the entire group. Jeanine hosted a brunch/luncheon for the volunteers of Open Table to thank them for all they have contributed to the organization and to the community. The house was filled with delicious aromas and it took a concerted effort to pull myself away at noon to go with Maya to the high school where she joined the robotics club. For the next six weeks she will participate in the design, construction and testing of a robot that will compete in the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics Competition. Pictured below is a solar powered seed planting robot that she created for her 3D graphics class.
