Four more days to go until I board my Norwegian flight at LAX London-bound. Had a nice visit to Santa Barbara yesterday where I picked up Lucille and we headed up to Fess Parker Winery. Discovered that Marcy Parker had just passed away--91 years old. That gave us pause! Here are a few pics at lunch and at the winery afterwards (flag at half staff).
Hiked with Belle from Ventura to Ojai a gentle uphill 15.5 mile trail, starting at about 6:15 in the morning—nice and cool for much of the walk. Our destination was the Ojai Beverage Company with 50 some brews on tap—what a reward!
Had a great hike on Saturday, the 6th of April with our SoCal Folks going from LA’s Farmers Market up to Runyon Canyon Park. A shell ceremony was celebrated where this pic was taken (the Hollywood sign is tee-tiny off to the right).
Afterwards most of the 37 hikers met at Farmers Market to enjoy their food, beer/drinks and above all our camaraderie.
