Marilyn's Musings

We had a great time. The trips there and back were uneventful. I'd hoped to see some wild flowers, but we didn't see any until we got back to Springville where they are out in full bloom. The weather was interesting while we were there--mostly unseasonably warm except for one day when the fog rolled in and cooled everything off. Unfortunately our accommodations weren't as great as usual--no handicapped rooms were available and our assigned room only had a king-size bed. Since there were three of us, this wasn't acceptable. Ended up, we got a rollaway and daughter Lisa put the mattress on the floor--better than feeling the springs through the mattress. Our first evening we spent at youngest daughter Lori's house where we had a great dinner. Also got to see grandson Chris and granddaughter Alyssa. Eldest daughter Dana and her hubby were with us. After a great breakfast at the hotel, I headed upstairs to the room where the PSWA board held their meet...

Everyone who knows me, knows that I love the coast--meaning the Pacific coast. My destination is Ventura. I'm not going for pleasure, though I know I'll have a great time. Our annual PSWA board meeting begins tomorrow--and believe me, we work. However, I'm also going to see two of my daughters (the other one will be with me as she's driving.) One  youngest daughter lives in Camarillo which is nearby and the eldest is coming to Ventura and will be camping at the beach. I'm also going to see friends (the other board members) who I only get to see twice a year--at the PSWA conference and this board meeting. The Rocky Bluff P.D. series is set in a fictional place above Ventura. This first night, I'll be having dinner with family. Marilyn Meredith aka F. M. Meredith
