The City of Encinitas, led by Council person Tony Kranz, decided to honor Leonard Nimoy with "Spock Block" for a week,
off Vulcan Avenue including City Hall area and the county library.
I wore my vulcan ears and attended the council meeting, 15march2015, when they
would decide this issue. I was really happy it was appoved to start on
Leonard Nimoy's birthday 26March.
Encinitas Advocatepdf But how was I to know that Glen and I got married on LeonardN's birthday.
Glen had made reservations for us at the Paradise Pier Hotel, Anaheim, 11th floor with view of DCA (Disney California Adventure). He also made dinner reservations at the Carthay Circle Restaurant to celebrate our anniversary with Disney. Therefore, I missed Encinitas' first Spock Block, due to the conflict with our 40th wedding anniversary, but returned to town while the sign was still up - see above. Now I am working to ensure we have Spock Block again next year, and Glen and I will stay local.
I had missed this show on broadcast TV, but had it recommended to me by my neighbor. Purchased the entire 5 seasons on BluRay and loved it!

For fans of the Big Bang Theory, the closest we got to having Sheldon and Spock together was the voice-over of Leonard Nimoy speaking to Dr. Cooper. It's still hilarious!
