    Friday 1/26 Early to bed, early to rise. Up at 5:30 raring to go…. to early to drive, still dark. So I cleaned up, had coffee, had a safety meeting, cleaned up some more ( including myself ) and sat around till it was light enough to drive. Off we go, to enter/exit this area…

    Thursday 1/25

    Thursday 1/25 Nice morning! The best part of a California day. Headed to CA 111 down past the Salton Sea to El Centro and finally exit California at Yuma. Stopped at a day use area at the Sea to walk around and take a few pictures, thought about camping here. I think it’s another option…

    Wednesday 1/24

    Wednesday 1/24 Up early. Left Cottonwood 6:45am. Golf is @ 10:00. It’s about 45 minutes to the course but I want to chip and putt plus hit a bucket. It is a beautiful morning. Bill and I idle our way towards the Interstate. The sun is shining and I really haven’t had a the opportunity…

    Sunday 1/21

    Sunday 1/21 It was cold last night. I think it was to get to freezing. Cold weather is not my friend. When I left Death Valley in November, to go home, I got caught in some cold weather and froze the camper up. I thought I caught it quick enough and got it unfrozen. Nope,…

    Friday 1/19

    Friday 1/19 Big storm coming to Utah. But it was 45 degrees when I left Kevin&Cathy’s. Big wreck with fire on the interstate right where I would normally get on, so headed south on State Street. The street numbering system (i.e.7350s) relates to the distance from the temple in Salt Lake. Blocks I think but…

    Thursday 1/18

    Thursday 1/18 The batteries in the indoor/outdoor thermometer went south but the truck said 19F. No dilly/dally made coffee, started Bill and shivered till he warmed up. It’s the one downside to a full cab, it takes forever to warm up. Bill’s heated seats don’t work….should of got that done. Oh well, warm weather here…
