Awake: 7:40am Temp 39 sleep 6+27 sunny overnight @ Lodi, CA.
Kathy is busy making soup from the turkey carcass of yesterday’s dinner, so I take time from my busy schedule & clean some of the water streaks off the exterior of our motor home caused by the Blue Beacon truck wash on Wednesday.
We visit Mary Jo & Jenny @ their place mid afternoon; both Ed & son Brian are either @ Ed’s office updating the company computers or they are finished with that & playing (18) holes of golf.
Meanwhile, K & I join Mary Jo & Jenny for nearly (2) hrs in playing the word game called: “Wordster.” It was fun & good exercise for our gray matter.
Ed & Brian return @ 5:00 pm after their competitive round of golf which ended shy of 18 holes by 3 due to darkness. Brian took care of Ed’s computer problem first. And now Brian is preparing to leave, planning to join a friend in Gilroy & then make their way back to San Diego. Chewy does not want to leave & seeks solace from anyone who will give it to him which is everyone since the whole family really likes him. After sad farewells, Brian & Chewy are on their way.
Today is Mary Jo’s birthday….so using (2) cars, the rest of us gather @ Strings Italian Café in town to celebrate this special occasion. K & I share an eggplant Parmesan dinner which was very good.
Upon returning to the Ed & Mary Jo home, Matt leaves to visit Valerie & Tristan for the evening. The rest of us spend too much time painfully looking @ my slide show on their big (42) inch screen. We leave & return to our bus by 11:20pm.
Watching Ed in his computer room upstairs trying to figure out how to load my camera’s memory stick on a DVD has inspired me to figure out how to show my slides on our (42) inch plasma TV. Newell upgraded one of our entertainment systems with a Marantz unit that I am still getting familiar with. By-golly, I finally got the combination right & the slide show works as it should. K & I review some of our slides from early 2007.
Lights out: 1:48am
