Last week I was at Mile Square Park, Fountain Valley, California. There is a spot at the park near the lake called Palm Island that was created by Ralph Velez, who is also hosting the upcoming Palm Society Meeting. Here are some photos of the park. If you are in the area, please take a visit! Parking is free if you park off the street and walk in.

Tom,

Ralph had really done a fantastic job - being instrumental with Palm Island. Thanks a lot for posting the photos! :)
