Arline/Don California Days 8, 9, 10 Oct 20-22, 2019

I have been very busy or tired from being so busy that I have not updated this for a few days. 

10/20/19, Sunday, Day 8:  Arline/Don came to pick me up for church but if you remember I mentioned how confusing it was in the campground.  Well, they managed to get into the campground but then got lost and they were getting so late that that I finally called them and helped them find my site.  By then it was late but we went ahead to church and got there in time for the sermon....which was very good.  Others from the family met us there:  Jeff Heinkel, Dianne Eberhardt, Chris (Dianne's son), Casey (Chris's wife) and their two children.  From church we went to Jeff's house where he fixed a very delicious salmon meal...I had two helpings.  Jeff showed us his 'HUGE' house and we had great conversations after that as we got caught up with everyone about everyone. 

It was a wonderful day and by the time I got home, I just went to bed.  

10/21/19 Monday Day 9:  Got up and fixed a leak in the water at the connection, did laundry, and took a tour of the campground on my scooter.  There are about 300 sites which explains why it is so easy to get lost.  Arline/Don came to pick me up and took me back to their apartment. Some pictures below:

We had lunch there and it was delicious and then they took me on a tour of the facility which has about everything you could want.  They make it easy for residents to interact with all kinds of programs to do just about anything.  

Then we went on a tour of San Diego.  Lots of people enjoying the great weather.  

Downtown San Diego

Don/Arline - huge hotel on the beach

Doug Eberhardt's apartment - upper floor - downtown San Diego

Another great day and tired so went to bed.

10/22/19  Tuesday, Day 10:  Got an early start and got out of San Diego area easily because traffic was going the other direction.  The scenery was really nice as I went to mountains to desert.  Did have to battle winds again today and never sure where they were coming from.....crosswinds, head winds, tail winds.  Of course the head winds came the same time I was climbing into the mountains.  God does have a sense of humor.  Then things settled down as I came downhill into the desert.   They have permanent signs up warning about winds. 

Really nice rest area in Arizona where I had lunch

 Got to Sun City and Dottie Kuppler came to pick me up and we had a really great afternoon and dinner and conversation.....finding out all about her and her family.  We both talked about how blessed we are with wonderful family.  

Not really sure where I am going next because I haven't made any reservations so going out and seeing what God has in store for me.  Should be less busy journey from here on......?
