Heading Back to California

We got on the road Sunday without any hiccups, heading for Yuma. Carol and I stayed at Kofa SKP KO-OP for the night.
These co-ops are part of the Escapee family of RV parks members can either buy into, or stay at temporarily while traveling. This is the site we had for the night. Someone owns this site, but it is in the rental pool while the member is on travel. The shed you see in the picture belongs to the lot owner, and is not usable by the temporary renter. If you were going to plan a stay at this co-op, they do not accept reservations between the months of May to October, due to the weather.

Some friends treated us to dinner because we are selfless, caring, loving, and kind humanoids. The truth is, one of them lost their phone at Escapade, and we volunteered to deliver it to them, for a price. We went to Olive Garden for dinner. Imagine five larger than average people climbing into an itty bitty Nissan, a sight to see. I'm thinking sardines probably have more room in their can than we did in this car. As you see, we sat at the bar, there was a 30 minute wait for a table, and we were hungry. As seasoned adults (used loosely) we had a good understanding of what a bar is for. The girls had margaritas, the guys did bourbon and gin. Carol's margarita was an interesting concoction containing mango. I was adventurous, I had a Roy Rodgers. For those unfamiliar with a Roy Rodgers, it is a cola with a shot of grenadine. Now, lets talk adventurous, I added a shot of Makers Mark bourbon to mine, I call it a Wild Roy Rodgers. After dinner they dropped us off at our trailer, and they headed back across town to where they were staying.

This morning was uneventful. The afternoon we stopped at the Golden Acorn Casino for gas and lunch. We could definitely tell we were back in California, we paid $3.83 for diesel.


 Welcome home. I mowed the front lawn before we left two weeks ago so it wouldn't look like the house was abandoned, it was no use. The front yard grass/weeds are about 8 to 10 inches high. The back yard varies between 5 inches to almost 18 inches. It's great to be home, ha ha.
