We arrived Monday March 7th and stayed with our good friends from Minnesota who moved to California 20+ years ago. Dick was our formersquare dance caller and is still calling in California. Dick also managesa thrift store for his church. Gayle took us to visit Dick’s club dance lessonsession. On Tuesday we visited the Descanso Gardens. A beautiful place.It was a pleasure seeing them again. Their family has scattered like mostof us and they have their 2 cats living with them. We left on Wednesdayto check into our new digs in Carlsbad that afternoon.
