Gail was rewarded after 18 month's efforts to secure a "primo" rental at Crystal Cove in Newport Beach. Her determination resulted in securing a cottage on the beach for four days and three nights through the California State Parks System. Ross collected "beach glass", the grandkids attended a science class, the Berberets from Yorba Linda and from Fallbrook visited, the wine flowed, and a varied and extensive stockpile of food, much from Cassie's garden, was consumed. The only way to access this cabin is to have someone in the party designated as "handicapped." Gail's mother, Cathy, is willing to rent herself out for future trips for anyone needing someone so designated.
