I'd like to create a fun caring group of friends who want to have fun and help others close to home.

I'm looking for others who want to explore primarily in Torrance, Redondo, Manhattan and Hermosa Beach areas, Plus throw in Long Beach and Santa Monica and there is plenty to do close to home. We're also just a carpool away, up the 110 into Los Angeles. It could be dining out, cooking in, checking out the latest flicks, community theater or local entertainers. Or, let's do some walking, kayaking, golfing or hiking! Whatever!

Then there is the Do Gooding part. Perhaps we can get together and help Habitat for Humanity or knit blankets for the needy/ill, help out at a local food bank or find an activity we enjoy that would help others in some way - I'm open to suggestion.

The most important part is to have fun regardless of what we choose.

Come one come all, diversity enriches our world. Just be sure to post a photo, it's important for that first connection.

    Okay, what I really want are the cupcakes! But good things are worth working for, at least a little. Lunch first, a bit of walking and then to my favorite local place... Learn more
