Byron Walls Speaker: We are starting off the New Year with a comedian as our speaker, a comedian with a serious subject. Byron Walls is a folksinger, comedian and actor. In earlier days, he sang at the Purple Onion and the Hungry i in San Francisco and, a bit later, with the New Christy Minstrels and with Glen Yarbrough and the Limeliters. A comedy act and some movie roles fills out his busy career. He has for the past several years been speaking on the subject of crime safety and started California Crimefight—a crime awareness seminar. Byron says, “Laughter is the best weapon.” He lives in Los Angeles and travels the country speaking on this important subject in an entertaining and informative way.
Club Outing Thursday, January 16: The Joan Irvine Smith Museum has paintings of an earlier California—mostly landscapes. You can go to the website and see many of these beautiful paintings. The museum is free for seniors, parking is validated, and docent tours are on Thursdays at 11:15. Dining will be on your own at Il Fornaio restaurant which serves Italian cuisine. Pricing is as in better restaurants and reservations are a must as this is in the Irvine business district. We must have your reservation for carpooling and the restaurant no later than the January 9. Meet at the ClubHouse at 10:15 a.m. If you are passenger, please pay the driver $3 for gas.
