Awake: 6:29am Temp 53 sleep 6+13 sunny overnight @ San Diego, CA.

K & I started out the day doing some reading for (2) hrs.

Then I called my 1st cousin Florentz, living near Nicktown, to find out if the snow & wind were really as much as had been forecasted? "Yes it is," he said. "I snowplowed twice already & will be doing it again in a few more hrs!" I let him know that we won't be racing back to his neighborhood anytime soon.

This afternoon, in this campground, the workers were busy trimming the Carrotwood trees. They grow fast & every so often, the tree trimmers are called in to keep the trees trimmed skinny so motorhomes, 5th wheels, trailers, etc won't be scraping the sides of the RV's.

When they trimmed our (2) trees, Kathy went out & asked to have a few more limbs taken off due to our wider span. The boss man had no problem taking care of that. I was occupied working on our tax organizer & was glad she was her usual super girl Friday.

Dinner: Clam chowder with extra clams & bread.

After dinner, K & I drove to St. Bridget Catholic Church & joined the good size crowd to watch & listen to the Gospel of Luke as performed in the oral tradition by Michael Reardon. He was accompanied by Patrick Lane, the director, musician, & lighting artist. Lane has designed the special effects & written the original music which he performed live.I missed getting a picture of Patrick operating his busy organ, sound effects, lighting, etc.

DSC08786.JPGThey only ask for a free will offering & the private prayers of the audience. It was very inspirational & most memorable.


Evening movie: we finish watching: " A Damsel in Distress" with Fred Astaire, George Burns, Gracie Allen, Joan Fontaine, Constance Collier, etc. Bright Gershwin musical set in London, with dancing star Astaire pursuing aristocratic heiress Fontaine. Burnes and Allen have never been better....they even get to sing and dance.1937. Movie was so-so; Burnes & Allen were great! 
 
Lights out: 12:08am.
