We had a very windy night with gusts to 60 mph here in the RV park, and it continued today with blowing sand and winds. We decided to brave the winds and take a trip down to Cathredral City and Jessup GMC to have the air conditioner serviced and to balance the tires on the truck. As often happens with these things, they found something else--a leaking water pump. I guess that explains the slow coolant loss we have noticed over the last couple of months. At any rate, wound up spending several hours in the waiting room and spending more money than intended, but we didn't want to have a water pump failure on a steep grade on our way north. Everything should be now ready for our next travels.
After we got the truck back, we had dinner at the Cheesecake Factory, made a stop at Trader Joe's (those bacon-wrapped scallops are wonderful!) and came back up the hill to the RV park and into the wind. The wind should be dying out tonight and it should be warm and sunny for the rest of the week.

We will be here in Desert Hot Springs until Thursday of this week when we leave for the coast at Chula Vista. Here's hoping that you are staying out of the wind and or cold where ever you are.
Neil and Pamela
