2023-12-15 More Parties Today
The morning hour kept us busy going to the gym and then to a doctor's appointment. The partying began at 3:00 pm with us going to a Boeing Christmas Party as Robin's guests Them we are off to the Santa Elks Lodge for dinner dancing with Roboin and Mrs. Claus!
It was good to see the staff at Melanie's after three years of COVID keeping us at a distance.
Located right on the water we can see Santa Catalina easily.
Robin arranged for the party and she did well!
There were 50 folks there of which I knew about six (I've been retired sixteen years)
"All is going well!!"
"Surprise, I won!!"
Get the correct number!
Just us!
"Baby, it's cold outside!"
All smiles
The gang is all here.
This young man is 80 years old, he beat me by about four months!
There was a forrest behind the restaurant so we visited there.
From Seal Beach we went VFR to the Santa Ana Elks for the Ugly Christmas Sweater Contest. All the proceeds go to needy children in the local area.
I did not know where my "Ugly Sweater" was located and Mary gave me a hint and sure enough, it was there. Nancy Adamson gave this to me ten years ago and finally I get to wear it!
Mrs. Claus has arrived!
Dragging the ol' man along!
The tables were set and the wine at the ready!
She will be passing out candy canes any moment now!
She got me to smile!
We were asked to get our picture taken because of our festive outfits
Pretty festive I'd say!
Old friends for many years!
Ronnie delivers some roses!
Another good friend; he would make a great Santa
A rose for a rose!
They were fresh picked from Ronnie's yard!
