Yes, we’ve been seeing and doing it all during our time in Santa Cruz.

Update from Santa Cruz
Well, just wanted to let everyone know that we are safe and sound in Santa Cruz. We arrived Thursday morning, and it is hot and humid here (it just rained tonight). We are staying at El Jordan, the same place where we were married in 2003.
