ODDS AND ENDS AND OTHER STUFF

Well, let's see..... what else was going on. We went to the USO Gala and had a great evening. We hadn't been for quite awhile. My weeks go by so quickly since I have rehearsals twice a week. You know how that goes, once the week starts you're already looking forward to the weekend. I get down to see my brother, Genie, every couple weeks. He's an hour away so I make a plan to get that in. We're doing one of the Toe Tappers show there at the VA Home around Veterans Day, on Nov 6. We'll do our Patriotic show.

GRANDDAUGHTER KAILI'S VISIT

In July, Kaili came for a visit. We had one week to take in her list of things to do and see. She did get me hooked on the new IPhone 6 Plus. I need the Plus so I can see. My eyes are not in the best shape!! Lunch at the Oceanside Harbor, and a bit of shopping along the waterfront, the to the Safari Wild Animal Park. We took most of one day at home to show a lot of pictures and share stories. It was wonderful to have her here. 

I know I have some other pictures. I think they are on my phone so I need to transfer. 

Later on, in Sept, my very long time friend, Imo, and my neighbor, Ivona, took me to lunch for my birthday. A nice surprise. Bob was out of town  for a couple days.

MIKA'S FIRST FLIGHT - LAS VEGAS

Oh, forgot to mention earlier that I was taking our poodle, Mika, on her first flight. Since I have her registered as an emotional comfort service animal, I can take her on the plane with me. I decided to go to Las Vegas, where I have a long time friend I used to dance with. We stayed with her. Called the airlines and made sure all was in order and on we went. Mika was great. Sat on my lap and then slept. After two days there, she walked right aboard and slept all the way home.

CANADA - TIMESHARE WEEK

This year we decided to take our time and drive up to our timeshare in Panorama, Canada. And we took our little Mika with us. Not wanting to spend long hours driving, we stopped early enough to have evenings to rest and get ready for the next leg. The weather and scenery were terrific. It had been a very long time since we had taken a driving trip.
We went on nice walks with Mika and even took her over to the tennis court so she could run and play ball. She played 'spook the squirrels' when she saw them.
