Gene with Marilyn and Don Romelli and Don's son Mark. He plays Texas Hold 'Em professionally and is known as "Mark the Shark".
I love Texas Hold 'Em. It's one of those games on TV that captures my attention, and like a nice hot shower, I can't turn it off! While we were in Bodega Bay, we met up with Marilyn, Don and Mark. He taught us the game, I got some lucky flops and in the end had most of the chips!
What made the evening even more enjoyable was Marilyn's minestrone soup. She started cooking it four days in advance, brought french bread to sop it up, and served some great California wines.
Mark lives atop a mountain just inland from Bodega Bay. We took a walk past vinyards, towering eucalyptus trees and views of the fog rolling in over the foothills below. Quite a location and an unforgettable evening!
