We Were Busy Thursday

Paul took off on the morning walk as it might be raining the remainder of the week!  The decorations are now out in full force. Paul had to be careful not to take duplicate pictures!   Join the walk!

They seem to having a great time!

After the walk, Sue fixed a great lunch and we were off.  For 20+ years, Paul has procured a series of “retirement” or aloha shorts from High Seas Trading Company in Laguna Hulls.   We did so at the county fairs but never went to their offices.  We wanted them to do a “birthday shirt” (NOTE: Not birthday suit!) but they had no material.

Finally they said “If you find the material, we will build the shirt for you”.  Brigette found the material so we delivered it to them!  We also visited for a little while.

What to do now?  Oh…. Why yes!  Cucina Enoteca in Newport.  An infusion would be exactly what we need!

Look .... A selfie! Or is that a selfes-e? Paul learned how to use the timer on the iPhone to take the snapshot

We had our drink but what to do now.   “OH NO” exclaims Sue!  Paul responds with a “Wazz wrong dear?”  Sue had forgotten Wil’s birthday card and it was his birthday tonight.  That means we had to drive from Newport to Los Alamitos and back to Anaheim before 7:15 PM.  Here we go!

We chose to drive along the coast and it was an excellent choice.  It was bumper to bumper in a few spots but that gave us time enough to watch the sunset!

Where could we be... Los Angeles perhaps?

If one did NOT look forward and instead looked to the left, the sunset was a lot less busy!

The sunset was wonderful along the beach!

We made it to the dance and at half-time. Wil did the honors!  The cake was super and everybody enjoyed it!

Seems we forgot how talented Mrs. Lind was!  Rebecca made the Halloween costume for Miss Lilly… She is going as “Holly Golightly” from the move “Breakfast At Tiffany’s”!  Complete with cigarette holder!  We showed Lilly’s costume  picture to everybody!  Lilly, like her mommy, is a beautiful girl!

Great-grandma Sue shared the picture of Lilly as Holly Golightly with everyone!

We headed home arriving about 11:00 PM so it was Star Trek time.  Tonight we watched “Fusion” where Enterprise encounters a group of liberal Vulcans, one of whom leads T’Pol into further exploring her emotions.

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.
