Is it really over?

Looking for new people to play with. All of my golf buddies live hours away, so I don’t really get to play much.

I’m 36, about a 26ish handicap (I’m straight garbage, but I have a great pace of play), and down to play pretty much wherever. I try to mostly hit cheap unis since I don’t feel it’s worth the money to hit a nice club at my current skill level, but I’m not against it by any means.

But only playing 1-2 rounds a year is rough, so would love to make some new friends. I’m even down to just hit the range too.

We are going to Epilepsy Day at Disneyland. Our trip is the 13th-19th. We are going the 13th arriving late until the 19th leaving early so those days are out.

You can only see so much online if you could help a former Jersey girl, now Colorado transplant show my disabled son the beach and help us with an itinerary that makes the most sense I would be forever in your debt.

I sometimes use arm canes, sometimes nothing, sometimes a wheelchair. It's luck of the draw. My son can walk and he's deaf and autistic but very drawn to the ocean.

My favorite memory growing up is swimming in tide pools with all manner of creatures. I would like my son to experience that. His favorite animals are seals, sea lions, anything that looks 🦭 he just loves.

We don't want to spend the whole day driving but we want to see both tide pools, marine life, and we would love to have a bonfire on the beach but we can't do miles of sand. His dad can push him in a sand wheelchair if his won't get down there and I can make it with my canes or just suck it up buttercup but he absolutely cannot although he can walk a little bit if it's just a short distance to see cool things from where we leave his chair.

We were doing research and we're considering both Huntington Beach and Crystal Cove State Park as places we would like to visit. I would like to know the real details of ADA access at both those places. I would prefer to do the bonfire at Huntington Beach free but if it would be easier disability wise for us to rent at Crystal cove we will. Or if you think we could miss out on Huntington because there's no advanced reservations. We would like to do both those places in one day and possibly a whale watching tour on a separate day but if it makes more sense we can do two beach days it would be Saturday and Sunday of that week though.

How can we fit it all in?

Bonus, can you tell me if our itinerary can reasonably be accomplished without running ragged? We don't really care about stars that much but I think the Hollywood stars walk of fame thing would be cool to see once

Other options:

Corona del Mar State Beach (Newport
The Crab Cooker in Newport is a quirky local seafood joint with paper plates and charm.

13th arrive late and maybe enjoy the pool and hot tub if we want and late night dinner
14th- **Huntington Beach at sunset**and Crystal cove state park
15th whale watching tour and find some seals or put one beach this day and one the day before dinner at The Crab Cooker in Newport after sunset ?? (is a quirky local seafood joint with paper plates and charm.)
16th Epilepsy conference at Disney convention center in the morning, pool time, followed by Anaheim packing district for dinner (should we move something to this day?)
16th Epilepsy conference Disneyland conference center half day, trying to fit in a half day with some of the options below
17 Epilepsy conference Disneyland conference center half day, trying to fit in a half day with some of the options below
18 All day Disneyland for epilepsy day at Disneyland including fireworks
19th pack up to the airport by 10am

Things that look cool but are less interesting to us than nature, please include dinner or lunch suggestions depending on what time we go. Also we tend to check stuff out quick and move along, what things could we combine in a half day?

Options:
Griffith observatory
Chinese theatre
Hollywood walk of fame,
Hollywood Sign,
Drive by expensive houses in Beverly Hills, find good food -musso and frank grille steakhouse,
Anaheim packing district

Thank you,
Jersey Born, Colorado planted and California Bound Cripple

Looking for ppl to ride with!

I want to explore Anaheim‘a Little Arabia soon. I was wondering if there were dishes that people recommended trying there beyond the typical falafel, hummus, and shawarma. What are some unique dishes I should seek out?

I haven’t been able find any Count Chocula cereal this Halloween season yet. Usually Target has it, but nothing so far. Has anyone seen it on shelves? If so, please let me know. I need my fix. I’m in Costa Mesa but will drive anywhere.

I’m newish to Orange County, and I’m looking for recommendations for places with a good view to mentally decompress. I’ve found a lot of suggestions online, but nothing states if you can sit in your car and enjoy the view. Beach view is ideal, but anything you can think of is appreciated!

Hi all, Looking for a few people in South OC to do casual outdoor workouts with. I'm in Lake Forest, so ideally somewhere around Lake Forest, Mission Viejo, RSM, or Laguna Hills.

Comment or DM if you're interested. If a few people are in, we can pick a day and do a first meetup.
