15* @ 8 am and windy; 28*C in pm
I
slept in this morning as I was up for quite a while in the night. For some reason the skin on my neck was
extremely itchy and it took a while to settle that and finally go to
sleep. We finally left at 10:30 am and
got on I-8 West under sunny sky. The
wind was blowing from the north so we rocked from time to time. Once by Calexico, we turned North on Hwy 111
which eventually connected with Hwy 86 North.
The wind abated in these parts so it made the ride smoother. We stopped in Indio for lunch in the parking
lot of “Casino 29” then continued on I-10 West to Varner then Dillon to Desert
Pools in Desert Hot Springs, arriving around 2:30 pm. We paid our dues for 14 nights and set up in
site # 65. Our friends Dave and Louise
are here so they came over to welcome us.
I got a call from Gaetan earlier and he has set his date of arrival for
Mar 26 and leaving April 1 from LAX.
Looking forward seeing him! It is
very warm but pleasant. The A/C is on!
We travelled
160 miles in 3.25 hrs @ an average 50 MPH ( on the freeways, I set my speed at
55-58 mph)
N 33* 55.390’W 116* 26.021’
Alt: 1045 feet
12*C @ 7 am; 24*C and calm
It
was cool in the MH this morning so I had the furnace on for a while to get the
chill out. Our tax refund came in this
morning and that’s already gone to pay bills!
We went into town, Desert Hot Springs, to check out some motels for
Gaetan’s visit then we picked up some groceries and came home. Dave and Louise came over for HH and our
neighbour, Carl from Alaska also joined us.
He even brought some smoked Pink Salmon from Juneau; it was great! We watched a couple movies that we rented
today then to bed.
First
day of Spring!
15*C @ 8 am; 24*C and very windy
Val
went to her exercises this morning and finished at 11 am. She does both “Walk away the pounds” and
“Swimming exercises”. We went to the
clubhouse for lunch (hamburgers and potato chips with a bean salad) which was
pretty good, it filled the spot anyway!
Val stayed behind to work on a puzzle and I came back to do some
research while having a snooze!!! We sat
outside for a drink at 4 pm but came in as it was just windy. After dinner, Val went over to visit Louise
and Dave came over to chat. I watched a
movie on the tube after Dave left and then to bed.
