Adele, Joyce and Roxy's Annual Road Trip to Dillion's Beach

     Sometime on Friday afternoon, Adele, Joyce and Roxy, made a road trip to Dillion's beach to celebrate their Annual Birthday at the Beach event.  For a few years, they have all packed up the car

the food, the fire wood, and their best stories of the past, and the dreams of the days to come, and found their way out thru Sebastopol, turning at Dinucci's and winding slowly down to their dream

real estate nestled on the frontage road at the beach.  

      As they all remembered the early morning fog, and then the sky clearing, it seemed as this history was not in any

way going to repeat itself.  Each night brought a great dinner, and a small but warming fire, to go with the heater, since the weather was cloudy, cold, with lots of murky visuals out toward the horizon.

       Steven came out on Saturday and helped celebrate with appetizers and lunch early in the afternoon.  Then a few walks with Adele, Joyce and Roxy, before a warming fire, and another great dinner

brought to them all by Joyce.  While the night grew on them all, Joyce and Adele played number games in the kitchen, while Steven kept his toes warm while watching the tube and the sunset on the

horizon.

        Sunday morning early brought rain, and made the road slick and shiny, as a lot of people left early.  Joyce fixed zucchini cakes, along with fried potatoes, cantaloupe and sausages for breakfast.

     Adele had caught the Echium and the Rosemary as they had grown and spilled either over the wall to the ground, or had climbed up into the Juniper.  It looked as though it was going to clear.

        Steven packed his bags, and left the troupe to weather their final day at the beach and headed home the back way, which had always been the front way for Adele, Joyce and Roxy.  This is Steven, the chronicler of events, the teller of tale tales and the history of what goes down in Sonoma County, Child....wishing anyone and everyone a delightful last Sunday and Monday morning of the Month of September, 20011
