SAT JUL 26 MOVIE – 7:15 – MH Museum Hours is a mesmerizing tale of two adrift strangers who find refuge in Vienna's grand Kunsthistorisches Art Museum. Jo-hann, a museum guard, spends his days silently observing both the art and the visitors. Anne, suddenly called to Vienna from over-seas, has been wandering the city in a state of limbo. A chance meeting sparks a deepening connection that draws them through the halls of the museum and the streets of the city. The exquisitely photographed Museum Hours is an ode to the bonds of friendship, an exploration of an unseen Vienna, and the power of art to both mirror and alter our lives.

In 1963, Carmel Valley Manor real-ized that residents, although every-thing in the world was being done for them, still wanted something more—

to wit: crackers, candy bars, note paper, hair spray, sham-poo, TUMS and potato chips. A beneficent Administrator advanced $500 to stock an enterprise that was, over time, to become a boutique of fine (if used) clothing, elegant objets d’art, and charming items of a gracious nature. You may recognize this as the ROSE. What started as The Manor Store, became The Manor Shop-ping Center, and then, by a contest won in 1980 by Vivian Breckenfield (noted teenage book writer and Manor resi-dent), evolved into its unique descriptive four-word name: Residents’ Own Shopping Emporium, now known simply as the ROSE. (Don’t say “ROSE Shop”—to say “shopping emporium shop” is really overdoing it.) Everyone knows how important the ROSE is to the Coun-cil’s effectiveness. It is the single largest contributor each year to the budget set up to run committees. It took three years for the enterprise to pay back the original $500. The shop now often makes that in a week. Last year, the total

gift to the Council was about $25,000. A branch has been opened—the sure sign that the enterprise is a success. On Mondays, in the basement, ROSE II sells household goods, furniture, mechanical wonders and even men’s clothing. It’s fun for the volunteer salespeople. It’s great for the resi-dent and employee purchasers. And it’s stupendous for the Council—a Really Overwhelmingly Successful Enterprise.

Joan Smith Update: The ROSE has recently opened the "gallery" downstairs to feature paintings, photographs and other hanging art examples…even a lithograph of Salvador Dali!

Please note - This article introduces a man named Mickey Poole. If you think you know someone named George Poole, it’s safe to say you actually don’t. Well, Mickey admits he does use the name George on occasion: his driver’s license, for example, maybe his will. Or maybe not. At any rate, here’s how he acquired his preferred name. In 1931, several, or perhaps hundreds, of Mickeys were born. The first one was created by Walt Disney Studios. Mickey Mouse’s appear-ance was so spectacular and his character so instantly beloved that parents named their babies for him right and left. Mickey Poole was one of them.

Mickey grew up in Lake Forest, Illinois. He went to Lake

Forest Academy, then Yale, where he was a member of Chi Psi. Halfway through Stanford Law School during the Korean War, he decided to join the Air Force. He was stationed in El Paso, where he trained pilots to use Nike rockets to shoot tar-gets out of the sky.

He subsequently retired from the Air Force to finish law school at Stanford. He then returned to Chicago, where he worked in his father’s printing business for five years before taking the Illinois bar and practicing law. Some years later he moved to San Francisco, where he was hired by the corporate law firm Garrison, Townsend.

Mickey has a son and two daughters, one of whom, Ellen Rankin, is assistant pastor at the First Presbyterian Church in San Francisco. He married his second wife, Carole, in 1981. They lived on Rio Vista Road in Carmel Valley. He has one stepdaughter in Pacific Grove, and another in Santa Fe.

When he became a widower a year ago, Mickey applied to the Manor and sold his house. His application was approved early last spring, the permits came through in May, and Mickey says in two weeks he’ll move into 4-C with his two cats - Lily, a full-blood Maine Coon, and Sadie, a half Maine Coon. Mickey’s a golfer and enjoys traveling.

Please welcome Mickey Poole, a very funny, nice man you will much enjoy getting to know.

Mickey Poole

Two senior ladies met for the first time since graduating from high school. One asked the other, "You were always so organized in school, did you manage to live a well-planned life, too?" "Oh, yes," said her friend. "My first husband was a millionaire, my second was an actor, my third was a preacher, and now I'm married to an undertaker." Her friend asked, "What do those marriages have to do with a well-planned life?" "One is for the money, two is for the show, three is to get ready, and four to go."
