“Age is just a number. It’s totally irrelevant unless, of course, you happen to be a bottle of wine.” ? Joan Collins
We have a full day ahead so Paul started with the treadmill while Sue made a fantastic breakfast! Sue is a Kitchen Magician! Anything she touches turns to gold!
We did a few chores and then got ready to go to the Roosters Wine Tasting event at Old Ranch. We met up with Kathy and Ed plus Cyndy and Bill for an afternoon of tasting wines and nibbling on culinary delights. Oh… We did a lot of laughing and giggling!!
Who are the Roosters You Might Ask? Each year, the Roosters raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for disadvantaged children. This is the 37th year that the Roosters have been active in philanthropy and outstanding community service. Over the years the Roosters have been recognized by the news media, the Orange County Board of Supervisors, the State of California and the United States Congress the Roosters as one of the foremost men’s charitable organizations in the United States. Each year the Roosters Foundation Food Drive feeds over 5,000 families with needy and at-risk children representing 40,000 people living below the poverty line in Orange County.
Ed was appointed the official “Wine Scout”… We sent him away and he always came back with a recommendation and directions! This makes wine tasting easy on us!
We were under a tent this year and it worked out quite well. No one was on the golf course for some reason! Next time we might have to play nine holes.
Toward the end of the day, the number of people increased (or they got louder) so we decided to use our membership at ORCC and go to the members side of the country club… Mucho quieter!
Bill and Cyndy joined us this time and it was fun to have the kids around…. Kids?? Well, compared to us! We laughed and giggled for another hour before breaking up and heading to the next activity.
After another glass of the vino we went VFR to visit Flower before heading to the Garden Grove Elks for an evening of dancing with the Branders and other friends.
At about 9:30 we had had all the noise pollution we could stand and there decided it was time to go home! We watched some TV and then crashed! Great day and great fun! What will tomorrow bring??? We wonder!
