We went out for a team dinner 
tonight here in downtown Walnut Creek (located on the northeast side of San Francisco Bay). It is the centennial this year for the city of Walnut Creek and the events to celebrate it are still going strong – even though summer is winding down. There are parades, art gallery shows and a walnut festival (of course).
We also saw new condo building and new shopping center projects under way here .. a mini-construction boom of sorts.
