Seal Beach and San Diego



August 29, 2013 – September 1, 2013

Left SLO early this morning, south on the 101 to Seal Beach Naval Weapons FamCamp. This is a really nice campground, and we enjoy staying here.

We had all of Phils siblings over for dinner one night so they could discuss what to do next for Paula’s care, and put the final touches on the 100th birthday party. We spent one day in Chatsworth visiting Norine and Paula.

We made a side trip on the way to see Norine, stopped by at Inglewood cemetery to see if we could find the grave for Phils Grandfather. The girl in the office found it on the computer and directed us, with a map, to where he was located. There was no stone, so we had to do a lot of counting, rows and plots to make sure we had the correct spot.

The traffic in Los Angeles has not improved one bit, and I hate it!! It takes forever to get anywhere which makes me not want to go anywhere.

September 2, 2013 – September 4, 2013

We made a quick stop in San Diego to see my “Little Sis,” Patty. While we were there, we made a quick trip to the vital statistics office to see if I could get a copy of my Grandfathers Affidavit of Birth, which I’m sure he did in San Diego, but they have no record of it on their computer. Phil did manage to get a death certificate for one of his relatives.

We stayed at Admiral Baker Field, which is a really nice FamCamp, and just happens to be right across the street from where Patty lives. Right now southern California is having a heat wave and it’s hotter than a pistol and Patty’s a/c is on the Fitz. Not good timing!! But we had a good visit anyway.
