<\/a>Click here to see the details of our Halloween Adventure<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n There was a line already formed when we arrived!<\/p><\/div>\n Remember, “Life\u2019s a witch, and then you fly!”<\/p>\n We spent what felt like 45 years standing in line before we finally made it into the boutique. By the time we got there, my feet were ready to retire!<\/p>\n We had a lot to look at while waiting in the moving line.<\/p><\/div>\n Finally, we arrived at the entrance! And by “finally,” I mean after taking about 100 wrong turns and getting lost at least thrice. I’m sure we set a new record for the longest journey from the parking lot to the entrance. Thank goodness we packed snacks!<\/p>\n Mary met Roger’s White Witch just before we went inside!<\/p><\/div>\n We are about to enter.\u00a0 Remember, demons are a ghoul\u2019s best friend.<\/p>\n We hope we get out alive!<\/p><\/div>\n Inside was a veritable cacophony of Halloween decorations!<\/p>\n We were glad we brought a cart along with us.<\/p><\/div>\n We strolled, chatted, and splurged for a good 90 minutes and somehow managed to only spend $400! Our bargain-hunting skills look as practical as those of a cat-herding class!<\/p>\n Mirror mirror on the wall, how do we escape this place??<\/p><\/div>\n We decided to have lunch at the American Legion on the Balboa Peninsula since it was just five minutes away!<\/p>\n The kitchen opened at 11:30 am.<\/p><\/div>\n We had a drink before ordering.\u00a0 We hoped we could handle our boos.<\/p>\n We have so much fun together! We wished Colleen were here!<\/p><\/div>\n We peered at the boats while on the pier.<\/p>\n We walked out on the pier before jumping in The Silver Fox to drive home.<\/p><\/div>\n After getting home, we went to see David in the hospital and visited with Dianne.\u00a0 We brought her a burrito and Diet Coke, her go-to lunch!\u00a0 David is likely to go into hospice in the next few days, so we plan to go into high gear and make sure we can do everything Dianne might need.<\/p>\n Returning home, we got dressed for Campus Jax, where we were going to meet Jim and Vicky, Ed and Betty, and several others at 6:30 for dinner and to watch Santana’s soft music!<\/p>\n Let’s say the music was not as “soft” as expected!<\/p><\/div>\n We left halfway through the performance as our ears were exploding. Vicky, Jim, Ed, and Betty also left early.<\/p>\n We stopped by Aces Bar and Grill and had a nightcap before facing Scout The Wonder Dog.<\/p>\n Yes, we know it is not even September yet, but we are in the mood for the holiday season to begin.\u00a0 Last night, Robin and Mary started the yearly calendar coordination activities as we have to plan for: Halloween pumpkin … Continue reading ![\"\"](\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2024\/08\/2024-08-30-rogers-100-650x488.jpg\")
