This is my guess on everyone in the KF photo:

Back Row:  Oliver, Mona, Charity, Michael
Middle Row:  a non-wilted Diane with her arm around Kerry
Front Row:  RaviG, PatriciaSF, Ashanka

How'd I do?

I want to sample the ice cream. 

How amazing it looks and this menu sounds amazing. 

I know what will be on my list for SF next summer.

Thanks again for the post.  I love hearing of gatherings of KF'ers.  I hope there will be more to post about soon.

I am going to try my best to make it, Charmaine.  One of the boys has a vet appointment at 5 PM that day, so it will depend on how he does.  He freaked out a little last time we went to vet - after he was hospitalized in June I think he is nervous that he is going to have to go through that again - so if he gets too freaked out I may have to stay home with him.  Anyway, I am hoping to go to meet a few of the new class of Kiva Fellows before they head off on their adventures.

You are very close Eli, but you have two people reversed. 

For the record, I think we were all wilted. It was around 90 degrees in the city that day and the Kiva offices do not have air conditioning.  We were near an open window when we posed, and there is a small fan in the room, but it was pretty warm in that room!  I cannot even imagine what it must be like in the Kiva offices this week as we have warm weather here and they have nearly 50 Kiva Fellows in training!!

We enjoyed some great food (Afghan and otherwise) and Glenda took us on a walk through her nature preserve.

One correction:  Glenda took us on a "RUN" through her preserve!  (I am still out of breath!!) 
Yes, yes I know........... if I were in better shape I could run like Glenda!!!  (She will be still running when she is 90.  Of that I am sure!)  Glenda is one of 2 people that I have ever met in my life that could out distance the energizer bunny!  And I mean that with the utmost respect Glenda.  You are an amazing person in so many ways.
