Above – Selfie withh KJ just before she flew the coop yesterday morning.

KJ, my good friend since 7th grade, paid us a very pleasant visit from New Zealand.

She was here for a little over two weeks, and when she wasn’t off visiting family and her close friend, Connie, we had a really good time getting to know each other a little better and, as she said, she made a new friend (Bruce!).

A trip to Rancho’s in the golf cart…Dinner on the deck. KJ’s new friend took the picture.We met up for dinner in Mission Bay with another Jr high friend, Penny (Keenam), who traveled from Alabama to meet up with KJ.With our waiter …& enjoying a beautiful sunset!KJ likes her sweets … This was some sort of German chocolate cake on chopsticks. Yes, I had some too.Watching the sunset in OB.KJ’s youngest son, Jamie, flew out from Chicago for a few days and had dinner with us Saturday night. Ron stopped by later – a perfect photo opportunity!Beautiful!
