California dreamin’

Pescadaro clan: Skyler. Jimmy, Janet, Aislnn, Orion

If you think Jimmy’s just a computer nerd grinding his kids to academic achievement, note that’s he’s a neo-hippie of the first order with a tie-died wardrobe to match and a deathless loyalty to Jerry Garcia that at least matches mine for the Commander. He’s even an ordained minister in a sect that I don’t recall except for the colorful vestments and has officiated at weddings of some of his neo-hippie friends.  And none of that has kept him from being a diehard Wolverine fan, just like his late dad and all his offspring.

With that title, I can’t leave without the song (3).

I retired from the Rheumatology division of Michigan Medicine end of June '19 after 36 years there. Upon hitting Ann Arbor for the second time (I went to school here) it took me almost 8 months to meet Kathy, 17 months to buy her a house (on Harbal, where we still live), and 37 months to marry her. Kids never came, but we've been blessed with a crowd of colleagues, friends, neighbors and family that continues to grow. Lots of them are going to show up in this log eventually. Stay tuned.
