Left to right, Bob with Cookie and Ned Hales, front Boom and Gregg Hales, some of our oldest and best friends walking the beach front in Santa Cruz, California, on a wonderfully sunny day. At Ned and Cookies house in San Jose, wild deer, geese, ducks and turkey browse along the yards and golf course at their lovely home in the villages along the eastern hillsides of San Jose. Gregg and Boom live in the charming coastal town of Santa Cruz. It was such fun to be together again with our good friends.
