Road Trip: Tucson to St George

February 20Th and Moe and I took off for Tucson. We drove along ahead of the rain and had a wonderful time just catching up. The road had nothing see as it was a dark night. We got into Tucson about 3:00AM After a few hours of sleep off we went to see my Dad and Ma. And a wonderful Mexican breakfast. Then to the quilters market, one of my favorites spots in town. We picked up my parents and off to the Birthday party. I have to say that Moe really enjoyed seeing the snow on the mountains. And it looked so close. Really about 2 hours away.
There was loads of laughing about that. So we enjoyed good food and friends at the party. ( pictures below). We had a wonderful time with Coleen and Family. It was a foodie weekend, with all the goodies we don't have in California, like Eggees, and date shakes. we drove back home the next day in the crazy rain. Moe did most of the driving, as we drove through a cloud in the California mountains.
The next weekend Ernie and I took off to Disneyland and then to Las Vegas. After a day of rides and fun in the misty rain we drove toward Las Vegas. Stayed at State line and since we could not check in to our hotel until after 4:00PM, we decided to drive on to ST George Utah. Meet up with Betty and daughter at Lunch and then went back to her house. Wow what a beautiful home. We showed Betty around St George and the best ice cream "Neilsens" Yummy.
Showed her how to get to the Seagull book store. We stopped in to see Barbara. Who is now moving her and her pigs in Hurricane. We all miss John. Our love for Barbara runs deep. Back to Betty's and then the drive back to Vegas.
The next morning we went to the Old Mormon Fort. The Mormons settled in Vegas in 1885. Who knew. A little shopping about town and a nice relaxing night of movies and rest. We have found a place we enjoy for breakfast when ever we are in Vegas, Blueberry Hill Family Restaurant. Back to San Diego. Wonderful birthday.

As many of you now know we have bought a new home. We are really going to miss our house on the hill. We didn’t plan this, however life happens and the trust is thinking about selling the houses on hill once Sid passes away. Our sweet Sid is now 95 years old. So as his sunsets and ours is still mid sky, after much prayer. We decided to house hunt. We found this cute little 3 bedroom home in the heart of Lemon Grove. We have always liked Lemon Grove and are happy to return. It is 4 miles east from Beck Hill. It has all that we need a craft room and a guest room. The kitchen is workable and has lots of space and a garage for Ernie. Plus a nice size yard fro his garden and for the Tata to play in. It is close to shopping and the trolley. That is good just in case we want to ride it to Mexico or games or downtown. Lots of parking and a place for Ernie to put the Razorback Hogs at Christmas. Earlier if they are winning. The new address is 8107 Palm St. Lemon Grove, CA 91945. W

Mountian Fun

It's getting into Nov. And Ernie and took our trip to Oak Glen for apples. This year we took Milaeka with us. She really knows her apples. Even at 5 years old. It was a wonderful trip and yes the apples were great. We even brought home a bushal. Loads of shopping and fun. While we were gone, Katalina and Kimo had come to visit. They have sure grown up. They came back to San Diego to dance. Most of you will remember them coming to the Christmas Eve party and dancing for us. I sure miss the K Kids. It's hard to believe that are now almost all out of high school. Then after Katalina and Kimo flew back to Mo. Ernie and I took off for Big Bear Lake. No phones and lots of rest. We did manage to have dinner with Heather and Jon Teysko. What a fun time laughing with them. This was the first time we were able to hang out with them since they got married. We are so thankful that they were willing to drive from Crestline to Big Bear. You all know that if we pla
