The Donald and The Singer!

Donald Collete had a wonderful time at La Bodega, and it made our evening! First, let me explain, Donald & Mildred Collete had their first date on February 13, 60 years ago this year. Donald made the announcement at our first-night get-together in the bar at the Hotel Real de Chapala. And, you could tell from looking at the both of them that it was the best date of their lives! I don’t think they’ve been apart since.

So you understand, they’ve been through a lot together and weathered it all…until The Donald met Carol Bedford. It was a rollicking good time that I don’t think anyone in our group OR the restaurant will forget! I told Carol at the end of the evening that I think she made Don’s night. She looked at me, and shook her head, and said, "No, honey, he made my night!"

Carol even came up and performed a song with Don, which was a highlight of the evening. Don & Mildred bought Carol’s CD which she personally autographed, while sitting on his lap, of course! It was a great evening with the "luck of the Irish" going strong that night! We were glad to be there to witness it.
