It was May and so there was cause for various celebrations. At the one acknowledging Leonard Barkan for leading the Society of Fellows, I captured this photo of Nick Barberio.
A few days later, Michael Porter arrived with the Saudi contingent from Alfaisal University. I spoke with Maher A. Alodan their Vice President for Research
and then there were the group photos of
Armond Habiby (Legal Counsel, King Faisal Foundation), Maher A. Alodan (Vice President for Research), Michael Porter (Trustee), me, Prince Bandar bin Saud bin Khaled bin Muhammad Al-Saud, and Ronald Bulbulian (Acting-Provost, Alfaisal University).
On Friday, Suzanne and I went out to a dinner but first I gave Ben and his friends the rules of proper behavior
On Saturday, Suzanne and I went for a walk and ran into Sara Just who posed with Suzanne
and then Ben and I went to Sam's Club where we ran into Lianne and Libby.
It was yet another Mother's Day and so we celebrated as we had done in years gone by
though we broke with tradition and here we were at Eno Terra
as we entered
and explored the menu
which seemed to relieve Suzanne
as Sarah studied the menu
and our waiter told us of the specials
while Ed
Jane
Ben
and I made our choices
so that bread
and dipping juice could arrive
before the appetizers of caprese salad
and bruschetta arrived
with a bloody Mary
and a salad
soon to be followed by the main courses

Ed and Jane
and Jane and Ben
as the desserts arrived
as the waiter brought me grappa which left me in the dark
and then took this family picture of all of us.
