Last weekend my wife and I traveled to Salinas, California to photograph the Riptide Allstars & Alvarez High School Cheerleaders. Normally we would fly into Oakland and drive into Salinas however, this year we had a special reason to make the drive, my grand daughter. It’s a long complicated story but we just found out that she existed about a month ago. That being said, we couldn’t wait to meet her. She is a ball of energy and a dead ringer for her older auntie Felicia. Comparing baby pictures was like looking back in time. Needless to say my wife, the consummate grandmother, and I are elated and we’re already planning a longer trip back to Cali to spend more time with her. Isn’t she a cutie…
