My last post..........

about my Grandmother. 

Today would have been her 105th Birthday. We lost her this year. WOW this amazing. Our Grandma lived to be 104.........YEAH it is NOT easy to lose your Grandma even if she is a 104.....it's probably harder because you have had her for so long.

I love you Grandma............I miss yoU! 

Clothes, Clothes and more clothes....

My poor poor cabin. It is full of clothes from when we moved. My goal today and mission accomplished was to put all these clothes away........

Day Two at the Feldman's.....

.....and another wonderful day in Southern California. We took a drive to Downtown LA just minutes from the Staples Center to eat at the Legendary Cafe The Pantry". One of the unique things about this restaraunt you stand in a line outside to wait to get in to eat. Standing in line in eat in most places might just tick some people off, but the long line that stretched to the alley didn't bother one person in Line. Once I got inside and got my food I realized why people didn't mind.

A GINORMOUS Serving of some of the best homemade food I have ever had. I enjoyed a heaping plate of Hot beef, Mashed Potatoes and corn, along with the best grilled sourdough bread. I doubt if it was the lowest Calorie meal but worth every bite. It was piping hot and delicious. Ron enjoyed a hearty breakfast that included a huge piece of ham. 

Following the meal....we probably all should have either taken a nap or jogged back to Allen and Mary's house in Seal Beach, but instead we utilized Allen and Mary's extensive knowledge of LA and toured downtown LA including Hollywood and Vine, Redo Drive, Beverly Hills, and the Lebra Tar pits. MAN is it nice to visit a big city with someone who actually was born in Southern Califormia. We then traveled south back to Long Beach where we saw the big and beautiful Steam Liner the Queen Mary.

The topper of the evening was a sweet visit back to Maui and a similar treat we all shared while being there....SHAVED ICE! Pazookie was my choice which was Cookie Dough and Chocolate Sauce flavored shaved Ice Cream and Chocolate Ice Cream.

It was a great day!!!

Day One at the Feldman's......

It was the day of our Hawaii friends reunion party. Not only were Ron and I a Birthday Surprise for Allen, but so was Lynn and Pat. It was so awesome to have our old (almost one year) group together to celebrate Allen's 70th Birthday in Seal Beach, California. 

For those who don't know the story, last Match Ron and I went to Maui, Hawaii to celebrate the year of our 20th Wedding Anniversary. While in Hawaii, One night we attended a magic Show. Ron and I sat at a table with 6 other people. Included at this table were Allen, Mary, Lynn, Pat and Doris. Allen and Mary knew Doris but no one else. After meeting and chating we spent the next few days hanging out in Hawaii together. Allen and Mary who lived in Maui at the time took us all over the West side of the Island. IT was wonderful to have our own personal travel guides. 

So here we all are celebrating Allen's birthday. 

Ron, Kristin and Doris.
