~Apple Espalier in the Garden~

Our Anna Apple espalier had lots of apples this year.

I wanted to share photos of the apples.

The apple espalier adds softness and color on our side fence.

Our son, Scott surprised us with making an apple pie.

Stan loved it for Father's Day.

We also made some appetizers.

Mary's Gone Crackers with cream cheese and bacon bits

and radishes with avocado.

Tomatoes with mozzarella cheese

Antipasto Plate

We surprised Stan and rented a saxophone for Father's Day.

He played in High School.

Scott set up his drum set to play with him.

Great Father's Day Surprise!!

~The Hotel Del Coronado~

The weather has been so nice in San Diego this past month.

We were able to enjoy the Bay by boat on several occasions and I wanted to share photos with you of our trips.

We were invited for a cruise around the Bay by our friends,

Tami and Mark. We spent the day around Coronado Bay.
