Enjoying Julian!

Wednesday night was VERY windy!  How windy was it?  When I let Max out to do his business before going to bed, I stood on the inside (it was so cold) and tried to hold the door while Max went out on his leash.  The next thing I knew, the wind whipped me around, the door flew open and I was on the ground outside!  Ted came running out to get me but I was fine.  I think the wind let me down gently after picking me up and throwing me out!  I also thought our bedroom was in a perfect spot away from the wind, yet when I got in bed it was a bumpy ride for awhile!  Thursday morning it was 37 degrees and still pretty windy and rainy when I walked Max.

Our friends Jim and Della Crownover came up around lunch time yesterday and we went into Julian.  It was still a bit cold and cloudy but wasn't raining!  We had lunch at the Julian Grille.  The restaurant is set in a cozy cottage festooned with lacy draperies, flickering candles, and a warm hearth, the Grille is the nicest eatery in town.  We all had a delicious lunch and decided to walk about town!  We did a little shopping and then picked up an apple pie at Moms!

We came back to our RV and played a serious game of Pokeno!  I was the big winner by winning $1.50 of Ted's pennies!  Jim and Della won about 50 cents from Ted, leaving Ted 50 cents!  We then had apple pie and ice cream for dinner!

This morning it was 35 degrees when I walked Max but the sun was shinning and there was no wind!  It was a beautiful day.  We finished setting up our camp site and took off to Golden Acorn for a couple of hours.  Today Ted was the lucky one.  He came out $6.00 ahead and I lost $35.00.   It was fun even though I lost because I would play on a machine for quite awhile and would get to play some bonuses!

Tonight we had homemade lasagne in the club house here at the campground.  They served a salad and garlic toast with the lasagne with german chocolate cake for dessert!  I'm not crazy about coconut so I passed on dessert but really enjoyed my dinner.

I took a couple of pictures when we got back to the RV.  The sunset was much prettier in person!

When we were at Pio Pico I took some pictures but could not get them to download! Pics taken at campground, ballpark and at vollyball!

A beautiful cool day in Julian..."Ain't Life Grand!"
