I really wanted to learn ballet, but Mom stuck me in tap. I lasted through one recital (that Mom didn’t even attend, but I’m not bitter…) before the parental units decided that I should take piano instead. I guess I wasn’t a very good tap dancer. It was nice that Dad took me out for ice cream after the recital.

I love the story of the trunk. Did you know that some sheep dogs look almost the same as the sheep they are guarding?

Hello Queen Victoria…I remember waiting in the parking lot for you back in the day when parents left children in cars unattended.

The 70’s round of feminism took issue with this term…. so…. they came up with Shero. It all makes me want to move to (La) Cananda, take drugs and jump off the roof.

Laurie: you inspired me to look more deeply into the drug angle. I was high so I missed it.

Elaine: intrigued by my metaphors? Not bad for a graduate of U.F.O. (University of the Freeway Off-ramp)

JT: have you seen the exhibit at the Huntington? Just avoid Mary O’Looney. Ms Havisham loves the place and spends a great deal of time in the vicinity of the rose garden and tea room. Keep to the sun drenched high road. The girls are careful about their complexions so they avoid that area.

AH: My Halloween stash was gone by 9 p.m. I had zero trick or treaters. Guess where the candy went?

D: Travelers? news to me. An attempt to keep wanna be hippies out of the golden state? Intriguing. Walter the Chef is presently under the weather. Broke his nose. I expect details at a later date. Did you follow Vanda’s wooly pig link? Funny. Beautiful Peoria (see it here)

Vanda: thanks for figuring the cool flower mystery out for us. I’ve placed it into the post…Hoya’s!! The pig link is a reminder. A friend went to a public storage auction and purchased a trunk. Turns out the trunk held all this genetic documentation for a sheep farm (circa 1960’s) as well as the rejection letters a woman author had received in an attempt to get her “how to type secretarial skills ” book published. I’ve actually used the materials in a Palm Axis post..

Mary Kathleen O’Looney: although I’m in desperate need of an editor, your services are not desired at this time due to the restraining order I was forced to take out on you. Please, don’t hurt the server. Get some sleep.

Kathy H: Welcome: the mystery is solved thanks to Vanda. I’ve put in a link to a Hoya online business.

John E: how about a mid life crisis? It’s doable

Tash: Abalone Cove is a favorite spot for me. I go down to the beach, then walk the coves and conclude the walk over at the archery range. I’ve often wondered about the age of that house.

I liked all the connections in your story.
On the Protuguese Point 5500 – it has “Private” signs all over the front. I thought it was a private club, but from the back it looks like a residence. Sarah Adams (the other PV blogger) posted it a while ago – don’t remember if she had more info.
