I haven't spoken for a while, so here's a quick update: the diet is still going well; our health has really been good this winter and spring; I'm having weekly Pilates lessons from our therapist and next door neighbor Teresa; I had a root canal (not so good, but it's taken care of now); and John is in Connecticut.
Re that last bit: Stella and Eric are having a house party for the Soule clan this coming weekend, to celebrate and congratulate daughter Louise (aka Lou-Lou) on her graduation from McGill University up in Montreal. John had enough mileage points to fly back, and will be there until Sunday. Kathy, Dave, and Rowan are going to the party on Saturday, so Dad/Granddad will have a nice chance to visit with them too.
We've been fixing up the cottage here a little more: adding a very needed railing to the outside of the back steps, and another alongside some small steps leading from the front patio around to John's "studio" .... and are having some necessary spring gardening done also.
Our focus from here on through summer will be on the big family reunion in Carmel Valley at the end of July and the attendant visits from family members; in early September we hope to be able to go to Ireland with Eileen and Greg for a week; and in early October our friends Alfredo and Olga Bacchelli are coming to visit Boulder Creek for a few days.
Meanwhile, we've had a very cool spring season, and are longing for summer to arrive soon.
I trust you are all doing as well as we seem to be; add your comments below!

What do you mean you "hope" to go to Ireland with Leenie and Greg? What's in the way of that happening?
my physical condition (need another year of Pilates and diet to be in good shape for trekking around the Emerald Isle) ... The RU with its attendant efforts in July and early August will poop me out .... and am having to spend $3K for replacement of a permanent crown! We'll go next year when things are quieter.
