We have had a busy week in San Diego! On Monday Trent's game was at 5:00. The weather had changed dramatically on Monday and it was really cold! When we were in Tennessee I had gotten some flannel lined jeans and with a couple of layers on top I was toasty warm! The game turned out not so good. Trent didn't have a very good game but he did get two nice hits. He didn't pitch until the end and his team was already behind. His team made quite a few errors. Between the cold and the game we were happy when it was done!
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday were filled with miscellaneous appointments such as doctors, relocating the electrical plug in the back of the truck to connect the fifth wheel, hair and more!
On Tuesday we also stopped by La Mesa RV and looked at motor homes. When we got the fifth wheel and original F550 truck we had a 7 to 10 year plan to switch to a motor home. There are pros and cons to both! As we get a bit older, the motor home is easier to set up and tear down but you lose inside storage space. We have been doing some research and are thinking the timing may be good to jump in now since our truck and RV are worth more now and interest rates are still pretty low. We have a few motorhomes in mind and actually saw one of them the other day that we liked! Still doing some homework!
On Friday we went back to La Mesa RV to ask a few questions! We are going back on Monday to see a couple of other motorhomes. Will keep you posted!
We left the RV place and went to Trent's Jr. High School baseball game. Trent's pitching coach has changed his leg kick and he pitched two really good innings before getting tired in the third inning. Also it is 8 yards longer at this field from the pitching mound to the plate! He walked several times and scored runs. Score was back and forth but his team went on to win in the 7th inning! Both teams had a really bad inning where they were throwing the ball everywhere except for where it was supposed to be thrown! It was still a fun game, probably because they won! After the game we went to dinner with his Nana and Papa! Had a good dinner and conversation.
Today Joette, one of Ted's high school classmates, came in to town from Idaho. She rented a cottage down at Mission Bay for the weekend. The weather didn't really cooperate (chilly and cloudy) but she had a really great turnout of classmates, horse friends and family and friends! It was a potluck and everyone brought delicious food so we sat out in front of the cottage and talked and ate all afternoon! Della's bean salad was really delicious and my California Vegetable Salsa (Elaine Williams recipe) was a big hit! Some of the younger crowd walked the block to the Mission Bay beach to hang out. We rode over with Jim and Della in their little car. I don't think we would have had an easy time finding a place to park the truck!
Haven't been taking any pictures and haven't put any pictures on from my phone yet. Will probably get everything set up with the phone and the cloud while we are up in Hemet for the week starting on the 23rd! Time just goes by too fast!
When we left today the Kiwanis were having a hot rod show, craft fair and chili cook off here at the campground! We missed out the fun but when we got back home I did go up and get the slow cooked ribs special that the cafe offered. I was too full from eating all afternoon so have saved it for tomorrow night! Yummy...
