My sister and nephew drove in from Arizona this weekend. Arizona schools are strange, and give kids what is called “fall break.” It is like spring break, in that it is a small break given to students in a particular season. And like spring break it also coincides with a holiday. Spring break is usually before or after Easter. Fall break is on Columbus Day.

Not too many people celebrate Columbus Day anymore.

So when sister and nephew were in California for the weekend we went and visited some family that we haven’t seen in a long time. They live in Riverside and Hemet. The picture above is of (from L to R) my aunt (mom’s sister), my cousin, me, my nephew.

We also visited my great-aunt (mom’s mom’s sister). I haven’t been to her house in about 5 years, and it was pretty apparent that she hasn’t moved anything in about that long. The dust around the place was so thick. I had to step outside for a bit because I had trouble breathing.
