San Francisco Dreamin'

What To Do on a First Date?
Continuing the saga and search for half-siblings... So, yes, we're trying to get together with the Moms of the girls' half-brother.
(Wow, does that sentence ever seem tortured. Could you write it any better? Please? I think the available terminology sucks, don't you?)
Last week we had settled on them coming out to our house in the suburbs. They live in the city of San Francisco. I know it would be a step down for them, but I am sure it would have been good for them as well. Then, this weekend, I asked JB,
"Hey, did you by any chance ask if anyone in their family is allergic to kitties or bunnies?"
Well, I would venture that you could answer that question yourself. One mom is allergic to both kitties and bunnies. So, a visit to our home is out of the question - at least this time of year. In warmer months, we usually entertain outside.
So we lobbed the ball back into their court - their response was that there is the Silliman Family Aquatic Center near Fremont - perhaps there? Well, it sounded good. Alas, the center closed today until Dec 19th - for maintenance we surmise. Darn! That would have been a lot of fun.
So, we're back to Square Two (since Square One was just finding a date that would work for all of us).
I wonder what will happen next...
