The folks enjoyed the "suite life" at Petco Park earlier this week, thanks to the generosity of Paul and Carol Simmons! They enjoyed a delicious lunch together (and A+ service from the San Diego Padres crew) as they cheered on the home team. Thank you again to the Simmons and Hadaceks for a fun-filled Sunday afternoon at the ballpark.

Every Tuesday, we host line dancing classes in the Community Center. Many of our residents are big country music fans, so, of course, we had to pay tribute to the Queen of Country, Dolly Parton, who shared so much love with people of all abilities and backgrounds in her lifetime. Thank you to our incredible dance and movement instructor, Serena, for making yesterday’s class a special one. 💖

Casa de Palmas and friends ventured to Catalina Island last month! The crew boarded the Catalina Express and embarked on a full day of adventures. From lunch at Coyote Joe's to an incredible glass-bottom boat tour (where some of the folks and staff got the opportunity to steer the ship) to a golf cart tour of the island, plus a visit to the Catalina Casino, everyone had a whale of a time together. Thank you so much to the families and staff who made this trip possible!
