The “Luck of the Irish” is often a phrase heard in March with St. Patrick’s Day celebrated by many with Irish roots. Well, as one with an Irish background, I certainly experienced this luck or blessing on the morning of February 1st. While visiting my sister with my infamous Jack Russell, Duke, he broke loose from her backyard near DHHS and ran down the street and across Golden Lantern. We searched for him for hours but finally went home empty handed. Then, at 3:00 a.m., 14 hours later, Duke barked at my front door and announced his arrival! Somehow, someway, he had traveled 2.5 miles back to Niguel Shores. Yes, my friends,
there are miracles!
Our Valentine Luncheon last month was sweetly decorated by Suzanne Enis with unique flower trees in shades of pinks and reds on the tables. A basket of valentines was collected for residents at a local Senior Gold Rush Cure Speakers
home to bring reminiscent moments of this loving holiday. After a delicious array of healthy salads prepared by our members, Sandy Barker from the Goldrush Cure Foundation presented the organization’s work of delivering gifts to children suffering with cancer. She gave examples of the national foundation’s attempt to reach out with encouragement to these children and be advocates for their cures.
Please join us for our next Membership Luncheon on March 12 at 12:00 Noon in the Clubhouse. Our speaker will be Dudley Gladding, a distinguished, brave veteran of WWII. He was a delightful guest at our Holiday Party and will share highlights of his 101 years of active living and social life in Orange County. Remember to wear your green to the luncheon in celebration of St. Patty’s Day or you might just get pinched! ☺
