Walking Rancho Hermosa

Walking Laurel Street Oceanside

Summer 2019

As promised, I post today a story about other places in Oceanside. This post is about a woman who is

a scientist in Chemistry. She had her own business in San Francisco for many years. Moving to Oceanside, she has become one of the art patrons for our City and is a member of the Oceanside Museum of Art.

We met at the Museum one Sunday afternoon. Though strangers, after an hour of conversation we had become more than friends. Sisters are we in our love of the Ats, Science, our Country and the Planet we live on.

She lives on Laurel Street Oceanside. She and her husband walk the neighborhood most everyday.

“yes, morning walks are such a good way to forget, at least for a little bit, the nightmares one is dreaming about the previous nights and the nightmares developed here in this country. Spring is all around with Dutch tulips now growing in the garden. Abundant yellow, red, purple, and pink flowers were shining through the fog on one of my recent morning walk. Some wildlife, such as snails and lizards, are also detectable.”

Growing up in East Germany, she knows well the fears which were far greater than the one we face now. Her Grandchildren are very young, and she has to be brave to decorate her front yard for Easter knowing that they will not be coming this year for the traditional egg hunt...

Her gardening is a joy to observe and partake of with the skill of her culinary talents...

Thank You dear friend, for sharing your Easter Tree and the flowers of Laurel Street.
