Ocean

Wheel of Fortune Pat Sajak Oceanside I love this picture! Today was a great day! Any day putting my feet in the sand and ocean, a cool breeze in the air, the marine layer hovering above, with my friend of 45 years by my side, is a beautiful experience.  Everything that happened yesterday that made it a very tough day, was long forgotten and never spoken about.  We headed to Oceanside and walked in the sand and watched the surfers claim the perfect waves for their ride. We headed south on Pacific Coast Highway to Carlsbad, went into a few shops and had a delicious lunch at a restaurant that’s been there as long as I can remember.  I then continued driving south through Leucadia and stopped in Encinitas at Moonlight Beach for a few minutes. We would have stayed awhile but the beach was quite crowded and so we turned north on I-5.  I asked Alene if she wanted to drop a few nickels in a slot machine and she said yes. I took her to Casino Pauma, one of the smallest Indian...

Visions of Grandeur

The 5th wheel trailer Garage in back of the house Looking east from the front yard Front of house  Front of the house Looking east this morning from the back yard. The sunrise was beautiful!   It’s a really nice morning outside. DanaRiley and I went outside at 5:00am for a short walk so she could pee and poop. A short walk is all we can do around here even though there’s so much open space. The road is full of those nasty stickers that get in her little pads and cover the bottom of my shoes. We learned our lesson the first day here. So all we can do is walk on the grass and do circles in the front and back.  If anyone has visions of grandeur like I did before I first came here last year, put them to rest. The FF is a two bedroom, one bath, 942 square foot, single wide trailer. It’s got a nice large covered front porch that faces north. It sits on an acre that is kept up nicely. It sleeps six, plus there’s a 5th wheel trailer that sleeps four that has been sitting here for...

The Funny Farm

 Arrived!  There’s a delay in posts to the blog because there’s no wi-fi here. I’ll do my best with this early in the morning. Also, I decided not to send out the link until I arrived. We got here Sunday late afternoon and Alene, Abbey and her friend Deena were waiting. Abbey and Deena left very early Monday morning for Alabama where Deena lives.  Abbey will fly back to Denver on the 18th. Alene looked very tired and a bit disheveled…she cried. We had dinner, visited and went to bed.  We were all up early Monday; Abbey and Deena left and Alene and I just talked and laughed until we decided to go into town (Ogalalla) for some groceries. The FF is 25 or so miles from town but we cross over the dam and it’s scary how low the water is. Also visible from the road is some of the damage that the tornado caused a couple weeks ago as well as damage from a recent hail storm. Alene said she’s got 22k in damage to the back of this place from hail. Now to Alene: On the plus side-...
