It was a short drive from Morro Bay to the home of Charles and Jeanie, two of the loveliest people I know.
Charles is a very spry 96-year-old...
...and his wife, Jeanie is exhausted trying to keep up with him.
This is Charles' workshop where, presently, he is building a contraption to asphyxiate moles (or maybe gophers) in their holes.
Jeanie is his assistant, handing him tools and scolding him gently for gopher genocide. It's a tough job but someone has to do it.
Charles credits his lasting youth from a regular soak in the hot tub (Yep, in the nude)....
...and an occasional nap (fully clothed).
Daisy was thrilled with having an acre of fenced yard and lots of tennis balls to play with.
Jeanie's workshop is for her quilting....
It was a truly enjoyable two days visiting with this forever young couple while parked next to these amazing oleanders; and as always, it was hard to say 'goodbye'.
Jeanie sent me on my way with a homemade quiche, some mushrooms and 6 eggs from her neighbor's chickens.
Love those quilts!!
