7:30 am - Wednesday - January 5th - Anza Borrego Desert, CA - 37° F (much warmer this morning!), 35% humidity, wind 3 mph out of the north.....crystal clear, blue skies today with a forecast high of 72° F.....above 69° for the first time in a long time! On this date in 2017 we were enjoying a rare rain storm sweep across the Anza Borrego Desert to our boondock site off Rock House Road......↴
Since we arrived at our Anza Borrego boondock site on November 29th we have had zero visitors, and then suddenly on January 3rd and 4th we have back to back visitors. Tuesday our former managers at Romona Oaks RV Resort, Rich and Marnie Aaron, dropped by for a few hours to visit. We last saw them in March of last year when we were passing through Yuma, AZ on our way to our annual dental checkups in Los Algodones. This will be the 4th time we have met up with them on the road since we left RORVR back in late January of 2020. Up until they arrived shortly after 11:30 am we were not sure it would be warm enough to sit outside, but it turned out that we could, comfortably, sit outside, and we did for almost two and one half hours talking non-stop.......
We always take a picture with each of us putting one foot forward, and then an usie.....
.....it always amazes how you can instantly hit it off with someone at first meeting, and that was the way it was with both Rich, and Marnie when we drove down to Ramona to meet them before accepting the job at Ramona Oaks RV Resort back in April of 2019. I worked outdoors for Rich 5 days per week for 9 months, and we became good friends. Elaine and I have both said multiple times that we would be happy to work for them again anytime, anywhere. The time passed rapidly, and suddenly it was 2 pm, and time to bid them adieu until next time.
TLE prepared some broccoli/beef stir fry for dinner with a side of white rice that as far as I am concerned was restaurant quality. When we were in COSTCO last week we picked up a bottle of Saki, which I had forgotten about until she brought me a bottle of heated Saki for dinner....what did I tell you? Restaurant quality!....
We found this Saki set a few years ago in a thrift store
....I was reading book when TLE announced it was time for me to put up my table. The food was so good I don't think I read another paragraph until I was finished with dinner....lol!
We had a cloudless sunset fire Tuesday night, and stayed out longer than usual marveling at the amazing starlit sky.....I wish I had a camera good enough to capture what we see each cloudless night....it is amazing!.....
.....Mr. Moon is waxing again as we head into our last week here in the Anza Borrego Desert....thanks for stopping by!
