The other old family friends of great importance were Leo and Rosella. Here we are with them in their magnificant Orchid Gardens. Over 1,000 orchids in their backyard.

While on the trip, we were able to visit Gladys and Rudy, two very old family friends, especially Mom and Gladys. Here we are in their mobile home in North County, in their living room.

If you know Leo, you kow he had to take a picture of me taking his picture...

And here I join the table of Rosella, me, Mom and Leo at their patio table surrounded by their orchids and other wonders in their veritable botanical garden in Pacific Beach.
