We retired in May…hard to believe it has already been six months. I wanted to once again thank my Chevron family for the very generous retirement gift. Kelly and I enjoyed the gift certificate at the Farallon restaurant, which is part of our annual Christmas trip to San Francisco. We love ordering the Chef’s choice dinner with the wine pairing….it was excellent as always. I wanted to share the evening…enjoy.
