Good Times in San Francisco...

This past Saturday evening, Helen, Dagmar and Erica were treated to a very special dinner by the one and only Susan Lowe, corporate lawyer and Elvis fan extraordinaire!

We drove up to San Francisco just for this event and the trip was well worth it. Not only did Susan spend a lot of quality time in front of the camera, describing her relationship with Elvis and giving us lots of great clips, she also prepared a full Southern feast: collard greens, mashed potatoes, gravy, black-eyed peas, chicken, cornbread, pie, and the most delicious deviled eggs...We ate a lot and drank a lot and had a marvelous time watching videos and listening to EP with Susan and her niece, Jaime (also a life-long El fan, thanks to her Aunt Sue). There was singing and dancing and gifts exchanged - Thank you Susan for the terrific presents! We can't wait to put them on the car and use them on the trip! - if only every Saturday night were so much fun...

Helen's little sister, Katharine, was also on hand for the dinner and fun, and to help us sort through some legal stuff (ick) the next day. She was a fabulous host during our whirlwind weekend and we wish that she could join us in Memphis this August!

Last but not least, we made friends with an SF cabbie, Manuel Trejo. He gave us a ride, sang some songs and promised to send us (actually, Dagmar) some special Elvis stuff...Wonder what it could be???
