Aloha

In case you think Art is miserable living at Brighton Gardens, this might change your mind. Saturday evening the staff hosted a Luau for the residents and their families. From time to time they have celebrations and parties, especially during the holidays. The families are always invited to join in on the fun. This Luau, held in the courtyard, was loads of fun. They hired a hula dancer and not only did she perform, she also gave a hula lesson which was interesting.


Above she is leading a conga line throughout the courtyard. All the residents, especially the men, had a great time.


You can see that Art is not too unhappy.

Those folks must have had a ball!
Did you and Tim take a lesson?
At the reunion next summer, you all can teach us.

Brighton Gardens looks like a lovely place. How many apts. are in the complex?
It looks like a large place from the pic. Are you all sitting on Art's patio?

Brighton Gardens is part of the Sunrise Senior Living Corp. which is owned by Marriott. This facility in Winston-Salem has about 125 units. There are facilities all over the country. Two are in Plano - Sunrise of Plano on Parker Rd. & EdenBrook of Plano on Midway. You're right, it's really nice - like a hotel. The building is an "H" shape & we are sitting in the courtyard in the middle part.

Oh my gosh, I know exactly where that is on Parker. Great looking place right across the street from my friend, Lorraine's, subdivision.
