Romance and Sex Life of the Date




Well it's been fun having Pete and Vicki here. They've enjoyed themselves so much they've joined Catalina. They've been enjoying all the activities and if you get bored at Catalina, it's your own fault. Most of us can't find enough hours in the days for all the activities we're involved in.
We took them down to Shields for their first date shake. Delicious as usual. We walked out into the original orchard in back which was established in 1921 with date trees from Arabia. You can see the mature dates on the trees. Some above Vicki and I are covered so they are not damaged by rain or birds. There are permanent ladders on the palms as they must be hand pollinated and mature at different times so need to be picked daily as they mature.
Vicki and Pete head home tomorrow and Chuck and Barb arrive Monday.
