can you eat lunch in mid-February on a patio overlooking the Pacific. Yes, that's the original Queen Mary ship and a cruise ship in our view. The occasion was my best friend Tina's birthday lunch. Her mother passed away last June and I wanted to do something special for her on this birthday, the very first without hearing her mother's voice wishing her a happy birthday. She said she'd like to go somewhere we could walk around a bit and relax. I took her to Long Beach, to
Parker's Lighthouse in Shoreline Village. It's a favorite restaurant of mine that I have been going to since college, though not frequently as it's rather pricey. However, I wanted to splurge on my dear friend. She enjoyed the meal but I think the experience of sitting outdoors, relaxing, and doing something different were the really special parts of the day.
