Trentino Visitor from Mexico City

Oscar_ZueckOscar Zueck, former president of the Trentino club of Mexico City, paid us another visit in September. Now that he is retired, he is finally finding time to complete a thesis and book on Trentino immigration to Mexico. He is also trying to establish an online business in Mexico, selling vintage LPs and CDs. He has been collecting music for years, and now he wants to turn his hobby into a business. He bought boxes and boxes of LPs and CDs on this trip to California. While on a short stopover in Santa Cruz, he celebrated his 60th birthday with Dan Aspromonte. They had lunch and tiramisu for desert. Tiramisu literally means “pick-me-upper”, appropriate for someone reaching a milestone like 60.

Picnic at the Crown Memorial Beach in Alameda

A big thank you to Roger and Judy Ecker for organizing the September picnic at the Crown Memorial Beach in Alameda, with gorgeous views of the San Francisco skyline.

The kids had a blast swimming in the Bay, kiting, etc. Thanks to all who participated and shared a delicacy. We will certainly return to this venue in the future.
