We were happy to have time to visit our family and friends in the Southern Caifornia area.  We started off  in Dana Point  and had a great get together at the Coty’s beautiful house – the house that Brian built!  We got to sit down and dine with the Coty’s and the Litwinski and Lynch family.  We have some wonderful memories with this whole group and it was good to relax and reminisce.  Ken and I visited the place where Ken asked me to marry him,overlooking the harbor in Dana Point.  I remember it well. . . I had to ask him to repeat his question as he was a bit soft spoken in his approach!  (Was there some underlying fear there?!)  We visited  our nephew, Paul, (now 20 years old) as well as my sister Robin and her husband Steve.  Oh how I wish we could all live close to each other again!  Poohnut always seemed to find a good tree to climb and dreams of having a house one day with a big tree house.  We trekked down to Los Angeles one day and visited Ken’s Mom’s grave site.  We  have so many wonderful memories with “Tun”.  It was really nice to sit in the sun and remember our great time with this special mother and grandmother.   After our time with Tun, we had a super yummy lunch at one of Ken’s favorite eateries, the original Tommy’s.   While heading up north, we were  happy to host the Jaeger boys at our campground one night.  The following day, the kids all went over to their house in Wood Ranch and had fun swimming in their pool.   Great times with some very special people!
