President’s Message I forgot to wish our mothers “Happy Mother’s Day” last month, but with Father’s Day coming up on June 21st I want to wish them all a “Happy Father’s Day”.

June 21st also happens to be the first day of summer, but before you head for the pool, you might want to know the pool heater is not currently working. I am told it needs an O Ring replacement, which will cost several thousand dollars and is expected to be out of commission for several months, though we’re hoping for something sooner.

Our Spring Breakfast on May 2nd was a fun, successful event with delicious food and well attended. Nancy Jamarck made everything look festive (as usual) with beautiful place setting and center pieces.

Our 2nd PEHA General Meetings of the year is on June 4th, and the minutes of our last board meeting can be found in this issue. Unfortunately, it is unlikely this Observer will arrive before that day, so I hope you are keeping an eye on the kiosk bulletin boards and will take time to read the flyer when you get your mail.

We will also be holding our Annual GSMOL Membership meeting on Saturday, June 20th from 10 – Noon in the Clubhouse. If you are a member, or would like to learn more about GSMOL, please plan to attend. We will have a guest speaker and refreshments will be served.

The 4th of July BBQ/Potluck Celebration and Family Fun Day is just around the corner and we hope you will plan to attend and invite your family to join in the fun. (See the full-page flyer for details.) The pool will be open to all that day, but please remember food and glass are not allowed in the pool area and children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

I’ve not received much feedback regarding our meetings being cut back to 4 per year instead of monthly.

(Now the 1st Thursday of March, June, September, and December). This change is primarily because we’ve not had residents interested in being on the leadership team, but we hope that will change soon. If you are interested in getting more involved, there is always room at the table and we welcome your participation.

We are still looking for someone to take-over as the Editor of our monthly newsletter. If you have a computer, and skills you’d like to put to use for the benefit of our residents, please consider this vital volunteer position.

That’s a wrap for another month.

Sincerely, Diane Pimentel

GSMOL REPORT I am happy to report that Rhonda Hobbs, Arlyn Serber, and I were among the GSMOL members attending the Financial Committee Hearing in Sacramento on May 2nd, asking for a NO VOTE on HCD’s proposed - RN 26 08976, which requires all adjusted mobilehome fees to be rounded up to the nearest whole dollar. This would create a "staircase effect" where even minor inflation triggers a full dollar increase.

In the words of GSMOL Vice President, and Legislative Action Chair, JoAnne Ventre “It made all the difference in showing them just how much these fee increases would truly impact mobilehome residents. And wasn't it just too much fun to listen to the questions the senators had for HCD, as well as the comments and questions from Paul Steenhausen from the LAO?” To say we were successful, would be an understatement. This is just one more demonstration of the value of GSMOL, and why we encourage your membership and support. Sadly, we have only 61 members (28%) of the 215 units within our park. The membership fee is just $25 per year, or you can get your 1st year membership dues paid by attending the SCMOA/GSMOL meeting at the Boulevard Café on the 4th Friday of each month (except Nov/Dec).

Here’s another example from the HCD Website: The Park Manager Training Program ensures that by May 1, 2026 all mobilehome parks and recreational vehicle parks (collectively “park”) have a manager that is trained/certified and has been issued a Certificate of Compliance or Certificate of Exemption as specified in California Code of Regulations, Title 25, Division 1, Chapter 2.3 and Health and Safety Code, section 18876.1.

For more information about the Park Manager Training Program and the responsibilities of park owners, operations, and managers, please visit HCD’s Park Manager Training Program webpage.

Questions: Please e-mail PMTP@hcd.ca.com Now, all this sounds like a good thing, but did you know GSMOL applied to be an instructor and was denied because of a conflict of interest. But when WMA applied, their application was accepted. Now for those of you who don’t know who or what WMA is the Western Manufactured Housing Communities Association, whose Mission it is TO PROMOTE AND PROTECT THE INTERESTS OF OWNERS, OPERATORS, AND DEVELOPERS OF MANUFACTURED HOME COMMUNITIES IN CALIFORNIA. So, how is it that the GSMOL application was not accepted but the WMA application was not rejected for the same reason??

WMA has the financial backing of the owners, operators, and developers. WE NEED THE SUPPORT OF THE MOBILEHOME PARK RESIDENTS, and a 1st step is your GSMOL Membership.

Each park must ensure that at least one person employed as a manager, or acting in an onsite or offsite managerial capacity, is trained and successfully passes an examination. Training and examinations will be provided by HCD-approved third-party providers and will include:

•

At least six (6) hours, and no more than eight (8) hours of training, during the initial year, including

completion of an online examination.

• Every two (2) years thereafter, the training shall consist of at least two (2) hours, and no more than four (4) hours of follow-up training coursework, followed by an online examination.

A certificate of compliance is issued to each park manager that successfully completes the training and examination requirements. The certificate of compliance must be posted in a conspicuous location within the park managed.

All parks are required to pay the Program Certificate of Compliance or Exemption Issuance fee of $350.00 annually. This fee shall be paid at the same time that the park’s permit to operate fees are collected.

I fear HCD has a conscious or unconscious bias, and this has not gone unnoticed by GSMOL either. Who is to say that the HCD-approved third-party provider isn’t a member and supporter of WMA? If you are not yet a member, please join TODAY, by going to www.gsmol.org and be sure to include the Petaluma Estates GSMOL Chapter #0585. Or, if you’d prefer, you can sign-up at our GSMOL MEMBERSHIP MEETING ON JUNE 20TH (10 a.m. – Noon in the Clubhouse) For more information contact Diane Pimentel (707)772-7514 RHONDA HOBBS May 5, 2026 On April 10th I was scheduled to go to Kaiser, So. San Francisco for a Liver Scan.

Fortunately, Roberta offered to go with me and be my co-pilot to help with directions. We left at 7:30 AM and got mid-way between Petaluma and Novato when my car engine turned off. I was driving in the right-hand lane, thankfully instead of the HOV lane and was able to move to the shoulder safely. I never drive in the right lane. Ten minutes later there was a knock on the window and low and behold a CHP officer was there to help us. FYI, you can call 511 for free road assistance from the CHP and they will tow you to nearest, safest place so AAA can come and tow you to your destination. The CHP doesn’t want AAA to pick you up on the freeway anymore.

On an exciting morning in the pouring down rain, we got to ride in the back of a cop car and in the tow truck back to Petaluma.

God was watching out for us all through this ordeal. When I called AAA for a tow, I was told it would be one hour. We had settled in and 10 minutes later there was AAA. I've never had that fast of service ever. The best part, other than not getting hit while on the freeway, was the company that towed us was called Holy Towing!!

This was kind of sad, this happened in my new car, 2012 Prius that my son Steve drove out from Chicago for me at Christmas time. Steve was so glad we didn't get hurt.

Like I tell everyone who takes a ride with me, it's always an adventure when you travel with Rhonda. Thankfully, God was my other co-pilot.

Happy travels everyone!!

Leolo Pizza just opened (between Starbucks and T Mobile on N. McDowell) and it’s already a hit. The owner is great, and they are starting with a small menu—three weekly pizzas and one special—with plans to add more soon.

The food is delicious, especially the Mimi’s, No-Name, and Pistou pizzas. It’s a fantastic new spot that is definitely worth a visit.

…and they have sourdough crust and a cheese heart on each one.

"Welcome to Leola Pizza ! We are a family-run, independent restaurant offering the best quality Pizza and Italian Food .

We offer a great place to meet, eat and socialize for lunch or dinner, so please book a table with one of our friendly team or just pop in to say hello."

Gustav Klimt was 17 years old in 1879 when he drew (with charcoal and black chalk) this portrait of a young girl. His superb technical ability as a draughtsman is evident even as a teenager in the way he uses shadow to create a three-dimensional picture on paper.

Orange-Cardamom Bundt Cake

This cardamom-scented sunburst of a Bundt cake gets a double dose of orangeliqueur-spiked syrup: It's soaked into the bottom via skewer-poked holes, and brushed on top to harden into a fine, crackly glaze that sets off the rays so well.

Serve it for brunch or afternoon tea, it pairs especially well with a spiced cup of milky chai.

Ingredients

Cake

• • • • • • • • • • •

2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan 3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for pan ½ cup whole milk 1 tablespoon grated orange zest, plus ½ cup fresh juice (from 2 oranges) 1 teaspoon of baking powder ¾ teaspoon baking soda 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt 1 ¼ teaspoons ground cardamom 1 ½ cups sugar 4 large eggs, room temperature 1 tablespoon pure vanilla paste or extract Glaze

• • •

1 stick unsalted butter ½ cup orange liqueur, such as Cointreau or triple sec ⅔ cup sugar Directions For the Cake: Preheat oven to 350°F. Brush a 10-to-15-cup Bundt pan with butter; dust with flour, tapping out excess. In a small bowl, stir together milk and orange juice. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cardamom to thoroughly combine.

Beat butter with sugar and orange zest on medium‐high speed until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.

Beat in eggs, one at a time, then vanilla. Reduce speed to medium‐low and beat in flour mixture, alternating with milk mixture, each in two additions. Transfer batter to prepared pan; smooth top with a spatula.

Bake until cake is puffed slightly and a wooden skewer inserted into center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes (do not turn off oven).

For the Glaze: Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, cook butter over medium‐high heat until boiling.

Remove from heat; carefully add liqueur (mixture will bubble). When bubbles subside, stir in sugar.

Return to medium‐low heat and cook, stirring, until sugar has dissolved, for about 1 minute. Remove from heat.

Pierce holes in cake with skewer at 1‐inch intervals to bottom of pan. Brush half of glaze evenly over cake; let stand until fully absorbed, about 10 minutes. Invert cake onto a baking sheet. Brush remaining glaze evenly over top and sides.

Return to oven and bake just until glaze is set and dry, about 5 minutes. Transfer to rack and let cool completely before slicing and serving. Glazed cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

My idea of housework: Sweep the room with a glance.

Not one shred of evidence supports the notion that life is serious.

If you look like your passport picture, you probably need the trip.

Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.

A conscience is what hurts when all your other parts feel so good.

No husband has ever been shot while doing the dishes.

Opportunities always look bigger going than coming.

Junk is something you've kept for years and throw away three weeks before you need it.

Experience is wonderful. It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it.

By the time you can make ends meet, they move the ends.

Thou shall not weigh more than thy refrigerator.
