January 16 through 18th 2009

Friday 16~~~ Today was a long hard drive for Kent, the traffic was a night mare as the roads are quite narrow and bumpy. California is always broke and having problems, it certainly isn't because they spend a lot of money on their highways, they have the worst roads ever. We are in an Elks Club Park in Oceanside. We ate dinner and watched TV and went to bed before midnight which is unusual for us, we usually start for bed at eleven and it is almost midnight before we fall asleep. Saturday 17~~~Our friend Gary who lives in Carlsbad, right next door to us, came and visited us today. We drove to Temecula to a pizza parlor that we really enjoy and we spent some time at the casino there also. Kent and I got $10 free slot money to play from the casino, so that was fun. Sharon came home with $5.00 of her money, we played for a couple of hours, so we were happy to play that long and not lose. It sure would be fun to win a lot just once though. LOL Sunday 18~~~ We went to Mass this morning at the Mission at Sam Luis Rey, this is a real old Mission that we went to last year when we were out here. Gary called us and wanted us to come to his place for a BBQ, we had a salad in our fridge, so picked it up and we went there for dinner and we stayed and watched the two football games that were played today. It was a long weekend, so we were pretty tired when we got home tonight and we have a full day planned for tomorrow.
