Hi
We are heading for a big warm up reaching about 90 degrees by Thursday. It's always a good idea to drink enough water, and this is especially true on warm days this the ones coming up. It's also a good idea to avoid strenuous exercise during the heat of the day.

Jim and his wife Shirley were actively involved with the Rossmoor and Los Alamitos community serving on boards and volunteering their time and talents. Jim will be greatly missed.

While at some stages in life moving may be exciting, it's almost always a pain to actually do. Going through all your stuff. Packing and boxing your items. Loading up your vehicle(s).
And once you get to your destination, you get to unpack and put everything away.
What fun!!???
Or not.
