Which is: a luncheon invitation to the Los Angeles Yacht Club, Whalers Walk, San Pedro.
Yeah - I know awready - us at any place as swank as this promises to be is an unlikely destination for the likes of us.
To see the place and picture us inside it is …an unlikely juxtaposition. Take a gander layc.org
We are responding to a cry for help from Janet White, today's guest speaker. She is a fellow member of the SouthBayWritersWorkshop.com. She is working on a book detailing her experiences as the wife of a commercial barge owner dealing in the transport of various items to such as Singapore and a bunch of other exotic destinations and their adventures with pirates (they're for real) and the time the ship developed a problem transporting explosives and he had to go underneath it and fix it.
Like a great many of us faced with public speaking she is scared and wanted us and the rest of the Thurs. Writers to bolster her spirits.
Lunch is $20 per person and is comprised, so I read, of a garden salad, followed by Tomato Bisque and fancy Grilled Cheese sandwiches with Bread Pudding and chocolate sauce for dessert. The bar will be open, but you pay for any drinks. Reassuring news for Jan! Where was the bar when I was fitfully treading the boards at the South Bay Stories Show? Suggestion for next year's 7th annual show.
If the sun comes out by noon it will be a blessing - white sails against the deep blue sea … ah, picturesque.
