Beaches & Nurses

Last Saturday was a beautiful day here in So Cal. Jim had the day off, so we took a picnic and drove down to Laguna Beach for the afternoon.



We have had good rains this year, so we enjoyed just walking along the paths, drinking in the view of the ocean and the beauty of the blooming hillsides.

The ocean water was quite cool, but refreshing. (This is about as deep as we got into the water...) We had a very relaxing afternoon at the beach.

This past Tuesday was National Nurses' Day. (Happy Nurses' Week to all you wonderful nurses out there! We really do appreciate all the caring work that you do!)
The clinic where I work holds an annual luncheon to honor their nurses. This year it was held at a Tea Room and we were treated to high tea. The service was great, and the food was delicious.
The room and the tables were beautifully decorated. It was so nice to get away in the middle of the work day and be honored in such a special way!

The beach looks wonderful!Looks like you had a great day. We have spring here in MN with lots of rain today. The trees are budding and some flowers are in blossom.
That is quite the spread your clinic gives to their nurses..doesn't happen everywhere! Very nice. Belated Nurse's Day to you too.
