Orange County Visit

We went for a short trip to Newport Beach, showed Flo around the old neighborhoods from when she visited with us in CA a few years ago. We went to the dock to see our OASIS Boats and met Estella with a bottle of champagne. The while Bruce and Karen were at the eye doc, Flo had a chance to explore Fashion Island. Back home, Flo helped do research on Australia trips as we booked some great shore excursions. That evening we participated in Central Synagogues’ Dirty Dancing Music Tribute… lots of fun as we ate stir fry.

The next day was a more leisure day (even “more”). Karen & Flo visited the 3.4 acre Boulder Pond (in our backyard) which is filled with recycled water and a ¾ mile walking path around the 11 acre site with a 1000 tons of boulders in the waterfall. There are aquatic planters around the edge of the pond to view and over 2,500 plants that we watched being planted before the pond opened exactly a year ago. A walk around the pond with friends is always a fun activity. Bruce was in the backyard taking his online photography class and captured these photos of Karen & Flo on the pond.

The day ended with a great meal for Taco Tuesday!!!Read more
