Ocean Point Column Jan.15


Ocean Point Column
Jan.15 2015
By Maryellen Bertrand

For many Ocean Pointers who are New England Patriots fans the victory over the Baltimore Ravens was certainly exciting and a true nail biter to the end. The Patriots now move on to the AFC championship next week and many Ocean Pointers will of course be rooting for them. The Patriots- Ravens game found several long time Ocean Point friends gathered to watch. Peter Klein traveled to Boston to enjoy the game with Jim Rush and Kevin McGonegal and there was plenty of game time texting going on between them and Will Bertrand.
I do hope that next week’s game will end with the same winning results.

Kate Turpie is currently recuperating from ankle surgery due to a fall on black ice. In her recent Christmas letter she reports that her healing is coming along and she is able to move and get around with the help of family and friends. Doreen Dun is on the mend from knee replacement surgery in December and she would like to thank all those Ocean Pointers who sent well wishes.

Julie Brown sent some incredible pictures taken the morning of January 8th of sea smoke in front of Ram Island. They are posted on the blog, thank you Julie.  I’m quite sure that I can speak for all of us when I say how appreciative we are not only to Julie but also to everyone who shares their beautiful photographs of the Point. Julie and Link are awaiting the arrival of their son Chip and daughter in law Lisa from California who will be here visiting and working on their new home.

Marilyn and Jack Heise travelled to the Point over the holidays to check on the progress of their new home. They visited with Sally and Allen Johnson and were reunited with their Ocean Point friends the Duns, Palmrs, McHolds, Aldens, Fosters and other year round residents. Marilyn and Jack are excited to be joining the year round community later in the year when they move from Chicago,

Have a great week!
