MAR: My first visit to Palm Springs – guest of Vivian & Jack Davis at La Quinta Resort. Watched tennis stars practicing and walked the magnificent Mountain Course after getting a photo in a member’s custom Chevy golf cart. At Joshua Tree Nat’l Park, saw the San Andreas Fault, Joshua trees, but mainly big rocks, avid climbers, and postcard scenery.
JUN: The family vacationed at the lovely Cape Cod house Karen & Gian again rented. We were visited twice daily by a swan family. I quickly had George and Martha eating out of my hand. After I capsized my kayak, I earned a new title: “Sunkle.” And we dug into our traditional lobstah dinner.
SEP: Drove to South Carolina with Jon & Sandy Tafel to visit former Ohio Board of Regents colleagues. With SC Chancellor Garry Walters in Charleston, enjoyed Low Country Cuisine. Husk’s smoky burger earned its rating as Best New Restaurant in U.S. On to Kris & Greg Frost’s Debordieu vacation home for home cooked grouper (and a little wine) & a tour of the enclave’s beach and golf course.
