Cat, thru the eyes of Manang K. (Grabbed from her MP Blog)

Since Multiply is closing to us poor folks who have been using it for our blogs and photos, I've grabbed what I can before December 1.

Here is the photo album and thoughts of Kaiyen of my visit to here last 2007:

I know her face. We walked on the same corridors for four years in highschool but were never in a class together. I don't think we ever had a conversation until Multiply. Fast forward twenty-one years later, here we are!
It's so much fun to re-connect (or connect?). We finally get to speak on the phone one fine Tuesday morning and made arrangements to meet for dinner in the "City" the next day. We played catch up and talked and ate and talked some more. Then I realized I don't know much about Cat, still it felt like I've known her for years! Next thing I know (after a rough wrestling and arm-twisting involved), she agreed to stay the night at my place but only if I promise to show her a piece of the Sonoma wine country. Tough deal. I called in sick the next day.
We did try to have an early start that Thursday morning of 5.17.07 but we ended up yapping up a storm and flipping through our high school yearbook instead. It was nice to look back (I am not very fond of those years actually - it almost seems like a different lifetime) and visit that place in time with somebody who was also there. After a big Vietnamese brunch, we headed on out for dessert drinks in Korbel for some complimentary champagne tastings. Mmmm Muscato! Then burned off some cals on a mile walk to meet a 1400-year-old, 300-something-foot-tall, "Gentle Giant" in Armstrong Redwoods SP in Guerneville. After our commune with nature, we cruised downtown and historic railroad square in Santa Rosa and dropped by to say a "quick hellow!" to the Peanuts Gang. Then it was time to go home... 
Cat, that was fun. Unil next time, girl friend. XO 
...okay, picture time!
