The La Cañada Flintridge Tournament of Roses Association held a happy hour on Sept. 27 at the Green Lane home of Diane and Dick Crowther. The event launched attendees’ decorating spirit to close in on the final weeks of construction.

Regular supporters and many guests enjoyed the surroundings and mountain views as talk began to turn to the end of construction and the beginning of decorating  “Dog Gone,” the float that represents this community in the 2014 Rose Parade.
