what you *can't* see in the picture is me splashing in the shallows ;-) and it's sooo hot today, so a swim would be perfect

we're flying over on the 24th and spending a night or two with Rick in SF, then stopping with Rowan&Russell during ConJose and we fly back on the 7th, so seeing/staying with you after the con would be ideal for us (we haven't quite pinned down Wednesday the 28th either as I think Rowan is still in Rio then and Rick has other folks arriving).
