Last Two Days in Anaheim

You Always Knew Pamela Was a Wizard, Right?

Another storm has blown through the So Cal area, and we had a wet and windy day on Sunday with some visiting with family, some football and Neil's brother with niece Noreen, and a great chicken BBQ.  It was a pretty relaxed day, and we seem to be getting the hang of getting around down here:  freeway A to freeway B to freeway C to side street to destination.  The Garmin 1490 GPS unit that Neil got as a retirement gift has been very helpful--as long as you don't trust it too far.  Believe it or not, using the iPhone GPS and google map applications to double check routes.

Today the weather cleared and we spent the entire day running errands and some shopping.  We got a bit of a late start (as some of us retirees do) and went to a Jiffy Lube a few miles away for some needed truck service.  We had the oil changed, transmission fluid flushed and filled, replaced the air filter, and a fuel filter.  We dropped over $250 with everything, but it is good to know that everything is in tip top shape before dragging nearly six tons over the mountains.  We were able to get our prescriptions filled at Ralph's grocery store since they are affiliated with Kroger, which owns Fred Meyer where our scripts are in Alaska.

We are going to treat ourselves to dinner at PF Chang's near here tonight and then get the Fiver ready for a mid morning departure to Desert Hot Springs, where we will be for several days before we move on to the Brenda/Salome, Arizona area for a couple of weeks.

Hope you are doing well--we are!

Neil and Pamela
