We mostly ate our way through the week! On Wednesday our friends Jeri and Stach drove up the mountain to have lunch with us and for Jeri and I to shop in Julian! We had lunch at the Julian Grill, a cute Victorian house with good food and good service! I had the butternut squash soup and tilapia. Everything was delicious! We did some shopping and I found a Brighton Eiffel Tower necklace, which I had to have! LOL We saved the pie for last and boy was my apple crumb with cinnamon sauce delicious! It was a yummy, fun day!
On Thursday Ted and I drove across Sunrise Highway, such a pretty drive! We got to 8, went west to Viejas Casino. We had lunch there and did a little gambling! I came out a winner and Ted donated about half of what he played with. I even earned enough to pay for my necklace with some left over!
Friday I went down to San Diego for a nail appointment and to get Sophie's heart worm medicine! I was so surprised it was so warm. I don't think it ever got over 68-70 in Julian and nights went from 28-50! Weather was great! Friday night was candy bingo. It was in the clubhouse where they had a great fire going. It was pretty hokey but fun! Of course everyone was a winner! Amazing how competitive people can get when all of us could afford to buy our own candy bar! LOL
On Saturday, friends Bill and Jany drove up the mountain. We had lunch at the Rong Branch which was marginal at best! We walked around the shops and Jany found a couple of things to buy! We were just trying to help the Julian economy! I told Jany I had walked enough and so we decided it was time for pie! Back to the same pie place and this time I had peach apple crumb, also delicious!
Sunday Peggy came up for lunch. We ate at the Italian place just off Main Street. We had not eaten there before and I really really liked my pesto parmesan chicken with rice and veggies. Oh my gosh, everything was delicious and went together so well. I ate part of it and brought home enough that Ted and I both had it for dinner another night! This time we bought a pie (same place), cinnamon sauce and some ice cream. We got home in time to watch the Chargers lose :( but had great pie for dessert and fun with Peggy!
On Monday, friends Phil and Elaine joined us for lunch! We ate at the Julian Grill again and this time I had a bowl of butternut squash. It is so good! We didn't even have pie, which is good since we already had pie at home! We had lots of fun visiting with them!
The sunsets were beautiful behind our rig up on top of the mountain:
On Tuesday we headed down the mountain and are back at Pio Pico and need to think about that diet!
Great times in Julian..."Ain't Life Grand!"
