Why Fresno, California?


Phoenix is too hot during the summer and San Francisco too cold so we met somewhere in the middle for perfect summer temps - Fresno.
(refer to quote below by Mark Twain on San Francisco.)
Dad was seeing patients in Fresno and it was not a far drive for the Watsons after their San Diego family reunion so we met there. Great fun we had playing in the hotel swimming pool, hitting the $1.00 store, the $3.00 theatre and introducing the grandkids to one of Gramma's favorites- root beer floats! What a FUN 3 day mini vacation we had and can't wait to have a mini vacation with Brendan, Ally and Skyler later this month on the Florida beach.
"Legend has it that Mark Twain once said the coldest winter he ever spent was a summer in San Francisco."

It was so fun and really ideal temps. Helped ease us back into 110 reality after cooling off in San Diego. Thanks again for all the good times Mom and Dad.
