Feb 3

some of your dad's memories returned.

I don't know if any memories that have returned, but several long-ago memories remain: The births of my niece and two nephews; the seven years I spent singing with a chorus based in Long Beach, CA; the two years I spent working at a small coffee house in Long Beach. A lot more from the 20th century.

From the 21st, the memory I truly cherish is the defeat of the Giants at the hands of my Angels in the 2002 World Series. Aside from the births of my sisters' children and singing with that choir, that is the memory I'm most thankful for.
