See ya desert.

Mom’s trying to out flex her daughter.

First tennis, now bocce ball. I’m finding new ways to humble my daughter.

​

#42: Lounge by 5 hotel pools.

This is what it looks like hanging with a college student.

Palm Springs has a way of doing that.

Another Napa shipment just in time for National Wine Day.

I always knew I’d be hired by Warner Brothers, just not for selling dresses.

• A just reward for the muscle pain.

I almost died.

Medieval torture.

#47: See 10 New Movies in the Theater

Good enough not to leave.

#27:Sell the Bronco

Gave it its first wash of the year, but even with a jump it wouldn’t start. My guess is that a spider infestation is the culprit.

#96: Turn my office back into a guest room

Spa at 104 degrees + Giants vs. Cubs = A Fine Night. Too bad Arrieta ruined it with a rout against the Giants.

#60: Eat at a top 100 restaurant

The Restaurant at Meadowood is #71 on Pellegrino’s top 100 restaurants in the world. The space was beautiful. The service was impeccable. The food was hit and miss. The tasting menu was basically everything I would never ordered if given a choice. Cabbage and cod, not so much.

You know it’s a magical place place when they have sidewalk vineyards.

A quick stop at Bouchon Napa for some oysters before hitting the vineyards.

Sonia got to hang with one of her two children on this fine Mother’s Day.

#97: Remove a tattoo

Only 20 months to go.

The desert took its toll.

Day 2. Chris Stapleton was the highlight.
