Eight months earlier I’d taken my parents to Huntington Library and Gardens. My parents decided to forgo the Garden to get on with the other scheduled events of the day (which was lunch at Houston’s I believe and then The Gamble House).
On Sunday I revisited the Garden with Beverly after stopping for lunch at Afloat Sushi. As it turns out the Garden has many delights to uncover and we spent several hours strolling through desert cactus patches, rose gardens, Japanese koi ponds, bonsai displays, and rain forest waterfalls.

Afterwards Beverly recognized the area and decided to treat me to an experience unique to the San Gabriel Valley – an Asian foot spa. I guess I’ll never tire of hearing how tense I am. I did feel better afterwards though. To cap off the day we headed back to her apartment for some authentic Chinese home cooking.
