Another lovely weekend in Paradise!!!

You can't beat this weather. Mid 90's over the weekend, just wonderful. We had a very busy weekend with people in all week from all over. Los Angeles, (of course), Beverly Hills, Peoria AZ, Palm Springs (!), Santa Ana CA, San Francisco, Madison Heights MI and not forgetting our Scottish cousins from Edinburgh. It wasn't a very quiet weekend

To be continued!!!!!!!

Man attacked by Rabid Racoon!!!

No not really rabid we hope! Dennis was putting out the trash at his work, lifted up the lid of the dumpster, a raccoon was inside, lashed out and caught Dennis on the face ... nasty cuts and scratches. Many hours spent at the hospital but all's well thank goodness.

Now, a word about poolside etiquette ... it goes without saying and I am surprised I have to say it BUT .. sometimes there is 'activity' on, near or by the pool area. DO NOT TAKE CLANDESTINE PHOTOGRAPHS  either with a camera or on your cellphone. Luckily we persuaded the offender to delete the pictures.

ALSO, we are more than happy to let our guests play their own music although what's wrong with MY ipad I fail to grasp. BUT, when we ask for the music to be turned down, please don't try to argue with us or throw us filthy looks!

Apart from that, we've had a great weekend with visitors from Columbus, OH, San Diego, Ontario, Oxnard, Hacienda Heights, San Diego and from far flung Cathedral City. Not to forget our Canadian cousin from Vancouver.

The weather has cooled considerably back to a comfortable 85 today. Although we do love the heat, it's a bit early in the year for 90's+.  Not complaining.
