Barry and I decided to spend Christmas in Palm Springs so that we could enjoy the holidays, and not put additional stress on Justin & Erika to squeeze time in with us when they will have a lot of other family who will want time with them. Since Megan was down visiting from Washington, it… Continue reading 12-16-18 Early Christmas in Chula Vista

11-29-18 My birthday week at the beach
We had a reservation for beach front row for Nov 24-Dec 1, but hearing about the wall of sand that they put up for the winter between the front row and the ocean, so we figured it was silly to pay $15 more a night to look at a wall of sand, so we changed… Continue reading 11-29-18 My birthday week at the beach
11-10-18 Oct/Nov Time with Nana & Papa
We have thoroughly enjoyed having Isaac and Mona for various overnighters with us in the motorhome! Oct 2 we got to have Mona for 4 days while Erika and Justin went out of town. She was 8 months old.

10-31-18: Sold my Scott CR1 road bike -Bought Orbea Mtn Bike
I thoroughly enjoyed doing triathlons up in Washington and Oregon, so when we decided to travel full time in our motorhome, I thought I’d be able to participate in triathlons along the way. Nice thought, but realistically I have no one to train with, or feel comfortable running or biking in unknown areas by myself.… Continue reading 10-31-18: Sold my Scott CR1 road bike -Bought Orbea Mtn Bike
9-30-18: Tecate, Mexico day trip
Jo & Don Richardson took us to Tecate for the day. We walked across the border and started off with a little snack of tacos at a little local open air cafe. It was really hot today.

8-25-18: Pool time + Cornhole = New friends for life
One day at the adult pool at Pio Pico we met our now dear friends, Joanne (Jo) & Don Richardson when Don asked us if we wanted to play some water volleyball.

8-24-18: Pio Pico Thousand Trails allows for extended time with grandkids
We arrived at Pio Pico Thousand Trails, Jamul, Ca which is near Chula Vista and only about 10 miles from Erika & Justin and the grandkids! It is a decent park with a great adult pool. However, 50 amp sites are very limited. Having a lot of extended time with Isaac and Mona is our… Continue reading 8-24-18: Pio Pico Thousand Trails allows for extended time with grandkids
