I arrived in Oakland California on Thursday. I slept through my alarm, so I about 5 minutes to pack when the car arrived. Thankfully I got everything I needed and managed to perform some AM duties in the process.
Here's a pic of me with my Dad's ridiculous license plate.
So I did some research and found out that there are 8 outdoor bocce courts literally down the street from where my parents live. I conviced my Dad to get a set of balls and we hit the courts.
I had never played on an outdoor court before, but seemed to do well regardless, much to my Dad's chagrin. I certainly didn't make it easy for him. But I think he's caught the bocce bug and will be ready to play any time I'm out here.
My sister flies in tomorrow. She was supposed to come Tuesday, but I convinced her to come earlier. My whole family's excited.
Stay tuned for the making of the Thanksgiving feast which includes a fully functioning Turducken.

I just found out today that turkey in the Casey house will be deep fried. I know, I'm really grossed out, too.
Do not slag on the deep fried turkey. It's not as weird or heavy as it sounds!
There comes a time in a young man's life when he must confront his own personal turduken. Please document your experience for the rest of us. Can't wait!
Wow. Now I want a deep fried turkey. I wonder if it's too late to add it to the menu... And fear not Melissa. Turducken pictures are coming!
