Thoughts:\u00a0<\/strong>Do you realize that, in about 40 years, we’ll have thousands of old ladies running around with tattoos?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Today we are off to see the back doctor and report on “the shot”.\u00a0 We went to the appointment fully expecting him to say do the surgery.\u00a0 He surprised us by saying “Let’s do another couple of CT guided shots and see if we can’t get it to last longer and avoid the surgery<\/em>“.\u00a0 It sounds like the surgery is fairly significant, so he would like to avoid it if possible.\u00a0 We can live with that!<\/p>\n

We were so quite happy and headed for home to grab a bite to eat before going to Disneyland.\u00a0 We stopped by Old Ranch to make arrangements for an upcoming event and we called Becca to do some coordination.\u00a0 We asked if she wanted to join us at Disneyland this evening for a bite at Catal and she said “See you at 6:00 PM”.\u00a0 Excellent!<\/p>\n

We arrived at 3:15 PM and entered Disneyland for a stroll around the park.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

We have arrived right on time<\/p><\/div>\n

The parade was at 3:30 PM and it was a Pixar special.\u00a0 We went to our normal location which we have down to a science.\u00a0 People looked at us as being crazy because we parked the wheelchair in a specific spot.\u00a0 When the poles and ropes went up, we were right in the proper place and those in front of us had to move.\u00a0 We found a place for three little guys (ten year olds) to sit by the wheelchair and see the parade.<\/p>\n

Random Thoughts: Paul was at Disneyland opening day and will always remember that hot July afternoon in 1955 when you could still smell the blacktop which was justg poured and the trees that were so small!\u00a0 People dressed up for the even and some ladies even had hats on and dresses with high heeled shoes.\u00a0 Paul remembers wearing dress pants and a long sleeved shirt.\u00a0 Today the people dress like absolute slobs…it’s pretty disgusting.\u00a0 Bring back the 1950’s when people caredd about what they looked like!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

One “person” band?<\/p><\/div>\n

The green guys were really dancing up a storm and were shaking hands with the folks sitting along the parade path!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

They were full of energy!<\/p><\/div>\n

The turtle was shooting water at the crowd..it felt pretty good on this nice warm 80 degree day!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Dude!<\/p><\/div>\n

We departed Disneyland about 5:00 PM and went to Catal for dinner.\u00a0 We are blessed with a fantastic family.\u00a0 Becca and Lilly, Robin and Bob, and us!\u00a0 Nick stayed home and studies for finals!<\/p>\n

Random Thoughts:\u00a0 Paul’s Mom and Dad loved family and would have been excited to see their family all together at the happiest place on earth.\u00a0 Paul is blessed to be with Sue who also enjoys her family! Paul remembers going to Disneyland on opening day with his Mom and Dad.\u00a0 Believe it or not, Mom wore a dress, Paul wore dress pants, and dad was in a sport coat..those day were different than today!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Zack was a little late as he had to leave from Seal Beach<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Yes indeed!<\/p><\/div>\n

Sue had the veggie paella which was excellent.\u00a0 The veggies looked quite interesting on the bed of “dirty Cajun rice”.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The veggie paella was not only good tasting but nice to look at!<\/p><\/div>\n

Paul did the lamb chops and they were OUTSTANDING.\u00a0 Four chops filled Paul up and that’s saying something!\u00a0 They were “melt in your mouth” good.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Done perfectly!<\/p><\/div>\n

Bob did the pork chops and it also looked to be cooked perfectly.\u00a0 When Bob was done, the plate was so clean it could have been put back on the shelf! The waited asked Bob “So, what didn’t you like about the pork chop?”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Just delicious<\/p><\/div>\n

It’s our tradition to have a root beer float at dinner at Catal and this evening was no different that others EXCEPT, no Nick.\u00a0 He was studying for finals.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Thinking of you Nick!<\/p><\/div>\n

Miss Lilly knows the tradition and she joined us adults having a beer. We had six of them!\u00a0 Sue and Paul shared one.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Lilly joins the family tradition!<\/p><\/div>\n

Guess who is a “Daddy’s Girl”.\u00a0 Becca laughed saying that “when daddy gets home, I’m chopped liver!”.\u00a0 Paul thought he had good pictures of Becca but alas, she was next to Lilly and Lilly was moving 60 miles and hour so Becca’s picture did not come out!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

What is she saying?<\/p><\/div>\n

We call her “Professor Lilly”…looking grown up in glasses!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Judge Lilly is holding court<\/p><\/div>\n

We headed for home about 9:00 PM after a wonderful evening with family!\u00a0 When the bill came, it was $247 and Paul was shocked as he was expecting the normal $400+.\u00a0 After examining the bill and thinking about it,\u00a0 Paul had O’Doul’s, Sue brought her wine, Bob and Robin had cokes and Bob has two wines, Becca did not drink, and Zack had a beer.\u00a0 The lack of drinking cut the bill in half as in the old days, Sue and Paul would be good for six glasses of wine at $15\/glass or at least $90.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
