Coastal living.

November 18, 2007 we move to Ventura, CA. for 4 weeks. We love this beach town!

A big highlight for me was a Thanksgiving holiday visit from Evan for 6 days. Got to meet and spend some time with his friends he made while living here for 10 months. They are all very special and fun! Evan took me flying from Santa Paula to Ventura with the Channel Islands in clear view one perfect afternoon. We also took bike rides, visited the Santa Barbara Zoo, shopped and dined.

Jim traveled back to Tulsa to catch up with daughters, grandkids and family members, and catch a cold, too.

I found an incredibly brilliant flamenco instructor here. Ana Galindo has 57 years of music and dance experience. Her knowledge and teaching are unlike any other instruction I have ever had. And she embraced me with hospitality. Jim and I were invited to a very special evening at her house. A true flamenco juerga. Several flamenco guitarists, one from Barcelona, cantaores, lots of dancers, palmas and gipsy spirit. Ana is a unique and unforgettable personality.
