Eight out of nine......

7:34 am - Saturday - January 6th - GNHS - 45° F, humidity 64%, wind 4 mph out of the east.....crystal clear, blue, sunny skies today with a forecast high of 64° F.  On this date in 2021 TLE and I were on our way to Los Algodones around 5:30 am for our annual dental appointments.....↴ 

We only had one booking for Friday, but it was an all day rental, so we were on the job by 8:30 am.  As it turned out the lone customer had car trouble, and didn't arrive until 10 am.  In the mean time TLE and I busied ourselves with things that needed doing.  We had the customer on the road by 10:15 am in one of our 2 seat Generals.

We had numerous inquires throughout the day about rentals this weekend, and next, so I expect there may be some walkup business on Saturday (today), but TLE and I will not be working as we have the weekend off after working 8 of the last 9 days.  For the first time this year we have had rentals for 10 consecutive days, including today (Saturday), which is pretty great for COA!

After our all day customer left the staging area I took another of those 1 mile out and back walks, and managed for the third successive time to average 3.5 mph.....

....after my return TLE took her walk.  The day was delightful, and reminds one why people flock to SoCal in the winter time.  It was another balmy, pleasant 64° F day with no clouds.....

.....the balance of the day was laid back.  TLE and I took separate 30 minute lunches, and then second 1 mile walks in the afternoon....

.....around 3:50 pm we began to see our tracker returning along the Canal Trail, and within 15 minutes we could hear them coming, and eventually they came into sight....

It's 4:15 pm, and there they come

....and thus ended another successful COA rental day....no rescues, no breakdowns, and no accidents!

Shortly after our customers returned we bid them adieu, closed the COA office, and retired to the viewing deck to celebrate the end to a long 9 days.....

Look at those Chocolates lighting up!

.....TLE prepared Jalapeno Poppers, and Carne Asada salad for dinner, which I grilled (poppers and carne asada) on the Sea-B-Que, after which we retired to the 'lido deck' for a fire, and to watch the end of the 2nd round of the current PGA tour event being held in Kapalua, Maui, Hawaii.  It is good to have golf on the weekends again.

Thanks for stopping by!
