Sunday Was Great

We started the day with a walk thought the garden to see that the rain last night did not do too much damage.  We then got ready to go to the Garden Grove Elks for the “Wine Tasting Event”  that helps the Elks Christmas Basket program for the poor.  We stayed about 45 minutes because we had to be in Cerritos at 3:00 for the “Big Band Festival”. The Branders, Hanlon’s, Kuhn’s, Roberts’s and Irene.  Magnificent show!

Toe tapping great!

During a time of war, it was the music that united a nation. This jazzy, spirited tribute to the 1940s Swing era features singers, dancers, a Big Band orchestra, and tunes from icons of the time, including Artie Shaw, Duke Ellington, Tommy Dorsey, and Benny Goodman. Much more than a concert, it’s an authentic and inspiring celebration of American history and culture.

After the show, most went out to dine.  We decided a BBQ place was not for vegetarians and we went to Old Ranch where we met up with old friends.  We had lentil soup and it was terrific!

After going home, we watvhed some more “The West Wing” before crashing an awaiting the big rain  storm.

About Paul

Just an old retired guy trying to finish out my last years on this planet. I lost my best friend and wife in early 2020. I was blessed again by reconnecting with Dr. Mary Côté, a long-time friend. Mary and I got married July 28th, 2021, and are enjoying life together and plan to spend the rest of our lives being a blessing to our friends and family.
