Jennie and I drove down to Washington, DC to meet my brother Anthony (who was there for a military conference) and my parents (who are retired now and can do anything they want :) for the long weekend. We stayed in a nice hotel near the White House and explored the sites around the National Mall and beyond. It was wonderful to see my family and finally get to DC to see what its all about. Here are our DC pictures on flickr.

We got married

Jennie and I got married while we were in California, same-sex marriage is legal there for now. We had our civil ceremony on August 5 at the Santa Cruz County Courthouse. Jennie’s sisters Diane and Cynthia served as our witnesses. It was great to be able to tie the knot in the city where we met. The process was surprisingly easy and our officiant was wonderful. Check out the pictures here.

Weekend in Ithaca

Jennie and I spent part of our long weekend camping in Ithaca, just a two hour drive southeast. The weather was beautiful all weekend, we stayed on a pleasant tree shaded site at Buttermilk Falls State Park for two nights. Highlights of our trip were eating lunch at the famed Moosewood Restaurant, hiking 10 miles total in and out of 3 amazing river gorges and drinking cocktails at Felicia's Atomic Lounge. It was graduation weekend so we stayed away from the campus, but we did have the opportunity to do some shopping in the cute downtown area. On the way home on Sunday we stopped at Sheldrake Point winery for a tasting and some tasty gourmet lunch. View all of our Ithaca pictures on Flickr.

Harout and David visit Rochester

My close friend and college roommate Harout was in town, along with his partner David, for graduation weekend. They stayed with us on Linden Street and between graduation events, we showed them around our neighborhood and Rochester. We also had the opportunity to meet the wonderful friends of their family who live in Pittsford. It was so nice to be able to spend time with Harout and to finally meet David. Although we keep in touch, we don't see each other very often. Now it's our turn to visit them in L.A!

Check out our pictures from the weekend.
