Today is my grand-daughter Hayley’s birthday! It is also our 13th Anniversary (This is the day of our first “official” Date). I posted our blog then Audrey showed up at 9:30 AM and we drove to a restaurant next door for breakfast. Dave & Louise and their friends also joined us. It was a very busy place but we got a table for 7 no problem. Breakfast was very good then we went to Catalina and I drove Audrey & Marcel’s 38 foot motorhomes to our Park. At first the MH wouldn’t start and I had to get my jumper cable to get it started. I took it for a long drive to charge the batteries then came into our Resort and set her up at site 150. It felt strange driving a MH again.
Anyway, the rest of the day was spent reading, doing laundry and Val went to watch water-volleyball at the pool. It is sunny and very warm...84*F (27*C). We have a small roast in the slow-cooker. After HH, Audrey joined us for dinner.
Warm and sunny! Val went for her morning walk with Audrey then both went shopping in town for groceries. I went to the local restaurant that we went to for breakfast and had a hamburger, delicious then I found an AT&T store and bought another month of phone time. When I got home, Dave advised me that the Park was shutting down the water for at least a 24 hours period due to a broken water main. I filled our tank then went over to Audrey and Dave and I filled hers. We all met at Audrey’s site for dinner, Dave & Louise, Tom & Ellen and us. We had Pacific Salmon, vegetables and sweet potatoes; for dessert we had ice cream cake and raspberries...It was all very delicious!!! The girls went to Bingo here in the Park and the guys came over to our place and we told each other a bunch of whole truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. It all ended by 9 PM as each went to their respective home.
The water was turned off this morning due to a broken main so while I turned off the tap and unhooked the hose, Val and Audrey went for a walk. I also went over to Aud’s place and unhooked her water tap then worked on the intake hose only to find out there was a leak with the tap closing their main water tank. The whole thing will have to be replaced so I told Aud to call her repair guy, Mario, and get this fix. I would but don’t have the tools for it.
We left around 11:15 AM and drove to Palm Springs to visit friends, Louise and Ronald, from the Yukon. We met them a few years ago on the Baja. We had a marvellous visit and lunch. We reminisced over the years and caught up to each other news. We went for a short walk with Tucker then, after saying our goodbyes, we came home, had dinner then relaxed.
For some reasons I was awake at 6 AM and couldn’t go back to sleep so I got up; Val was up at 6:30 AM. We slowly packed up and at 10 am we went for breakfast at the local restaurant; Aud, Louise and Dave joined us. We left at 11 AM and 40 minutes later, we were in Indian Waters Resort in Indio. We paid our dues ($112 for 7 nights), set up and now are relaxing under A/C. We have full hook-up with 50 AMPS. We jumped in our swimsuits and went for a swim in the pool to cool off; it is 98*F (34*C). It sure felt good! We sat outside for quite a while as it was quite hot, the A/C had a hard time keeping up. Dinner then we watched “SURVIVORS”
We drove 28 miles (45 KM) in 40 minutes @ 40 MPH average.
