Here's a link to an old TR from our 20th at the Tickle Pink.
Loved it.

Aww, Suzie, Happy Anniversary..the Yankee and I have been married for 100 years so every anniversary is Major
Kals idea sounds good, though I got kinda seasick thinking about it I love the idea of an Inn by the Ocean..I am no help but just wanted to say hello to my pals and wish you a Happy Major Anniversary

We all do love the water!!

Thanks Scarlett - yes 100 years does sound about right!

This major anniversary will be followed by a major birthday in a few short months. Yikes I truly hate to think about it. Why are my kids still so young?

Oh well, Major Anniversaries can be 100 years but Major Birthdays just mean you might be getting out of your 20's
So as long as I am here, Happy 30th Birthday

Well kids, DH was advised that there would be no time off in Sept available to him.

Dinner in northern CA? Could we really justify driving up to south shore to eat at Evans?

Love the Plumpjacks Kal. Are those beers for the babysitter or the sittees?

LilMsFoodie,
Are you referring to the Whale Watch Inn in Gualala? Have you stayed there? If so, can you tell us about the place?
Thanks

Kal, I was busy reading the wine section.

I did read about Cafe Bernardo going out and then got distracted by the wine column. After that I'm sure there was some teen crisis to solve - lost sunglasses I think it was. So going back to the paper I see that Paragary, Spataro and Ernesto's owner are joining up to replace it (Cafe Bernardo) with Mexican food! Whoo Hoo! Anyway back to Paradise Grill, if they play Hawaiian music and serve a decent mai tai who cares what they serve on the plate! Let me know what cha think! Memorize the fish section of the menu for me. I won't be able to eat out until next week sometime - off to one of those dreaded summer rituals - family reunion. I'd suggest raisng a glass for me but I'm going to be raising plenty aready!!!!
