Mom certainly loved living in San Pedro, CA, from 1976 or so until we were forced to move her to an assisted living facility in 2002, a couple of months before she died.
One of the places she especially enjoyed visiting and having coffee was Ports O' Call Village, only a few blocks away.
She made friends with a woman who worked at a shop there, Wings.
Before she was hit by a guy riding a bicycle on a sidewalk in Long Beach, she also used to ride her own bike down to Ports O' Call and visit other friends she'd made there.
I always made sure, especially around Christmas time, whenever I visited, that we stopped into Ramona bakery to buy baked goods for the holiday season.
Some of the ships with masts and rigging are in the background in this picture.
