WELCOME TO NEW JERSEY PEACHY GARCIA !

We all had a get together to welcome Peachy Garcia-Tiongson to New Jersey She arrived Friday, April 19 at 7:30 A.M. Karla and I greeted her still wearing our pajamas as it was early morning, that night Juana San Juan and Marilene Gonzales came and everyone stayed over. As usual hindi na natapos ang kwentuhan we had to control ourselves and slept at 2;30 a.m. as we were to wake up early the next day.....

The next day, all woke up early as planned , Left at 10:00 A.M. for Atlantic City, We had to go kasi there was a concert, Pops Fernandez with Apo Hiking Society . See si Karla's Husband is the first cousin of Pops Fernandez, thanks to her, we got complimentary tickets, center front row! Si Juana naman, used to work for Danny Javier, she came to surprise him. When we got there we met up with Chichi Comsti naman who drove from Virginia. Oh by the way FYI Atlantic City is the home of Miss America and Casino city.... Si Chichi Comsti won $250.00 ....LUCKY! Oh, after the concert we saw Divina "joy" Zabat! She was so surprised to see us all together! We stayed overnight in Atlantic city, before going to bed, we took pictures, we were so noisy, tawa ng tawa then the hotel security knocked and said that if we didn't stay quiet we would be evicted out of our room so we had no choice but sleep.... we had so much fun.....

Sunday we drove back to Norwood, winner talaga si peachy because she talked and made us all laugh from Atlantic city to Norwood (2 hours and 45 minutes drive) Non stop ang jokes niya! When we got home Darwin, Karla's husband made us dinner.....

The following day we took peachy and marilene to New York City, we went to Ground Zero, sea port, had lunch in Chinatown then went uptown to visit Juana and say their goodbyes! Peachy flew back to LA first thing Tuesday....We all had so much fun! I myself had not seen Peachy since 1986! 16 years did not change a thing, friendship never faded, time and distance did not change a thing! Its wonderful I tell you!
