To avoid crossing a hotel picket line,\u00a0California Appellate Defense Counsel<\/a> changed the location of its annual conference and seminar, held this year on March 13 and 14, from Los Angeles to the Crowne Plaza Hotel in <\/a>Redondo Beach<\/a>. That gave Carla and I a chance to enjoy a weekend with this view:<\/p>\n

I attended classes for my Mandatory Continuing Legal Education (MCLE) Friday and Saturday. This included a question-and-answer session with California Supreme Court Justice Goodwin Liu, who was pleasant and thoughtful. Carla and I enjoyed dining Friday evening with Uncle Ron at the\u00a0Bluewater Grill<\/a>—good food and great company. While walking the short distance there, we chanced upon Tammy Milonas, a former member of our ward; she said she’s living with her mother on a boat berthed there.<\/p>\n

Saturday evening, Carla and I walked in the area, with this sunset:<\/p>\n

At the wharf we passed this statue honoring diving enthusiasts\u00a0Bill and Bob Meistrell, who invented the wet suit there in 1953:<\/p>\n

At the end of our walk, we ate at the nearby Ruby’s Diner<\/a>; here’s the lovely Ruby:<\/p>\n
