Loretta arrives

Where are we today?

This morning my sister went to LAX to meet Loretta who has flown in from Brisbane, Australia. Loretta and my sister lived with Virginia back in the 1970s, so it is important for Loretta to be here now as Virginia is slowly slipping away. I went over to the condo for a while to meet Loretta and then I came back to Guajome just after lunch. The weather is getting cooler again and it looks as if we might have more rain.

I have reserved a spot back here next week. We will more than likely go back to Bernardo Winery for the weekend as the park is fully booked.

This evening we are periodically being startled by explosions from Camp Pendleton. They must be doing maneuvers over there. We are quite close to the military camp, so it is quite disconcerting to have the RV rattled every so often.

Guajome County Park and My sister and her children arrive.

Where are we today? 
Guajome County Park, Oceanside

Welcome to our blog, Elaine and Robert and Robert the Wheels (who is actually Robert of Elaine and Robert). :-)

Yesterday we asked the lovely folk at Bernardo Winery if we could stay Saturday as well. They were very happy for us to stay. Wonderful place with wonderful people.

At about 11:30 We left Bernardo Winery. I went to San Diego Airport to meet my sister, Patricia and her two children who are coming, from Maryland, to stay and see Virginia. My sister will be here for about 3 weeks and the kids will be here for about 5 days. Michael took the RV and went over to the parking lot outside the Chateau to wait for us.

As soon as my sister and family were settled into the condo, we took the RV over to Guajome County Park, where we had reserved a site for 5 days. The park is big, over 500 acres, but only 35 partial hook-up sites, with water and electricity. We were not able to get weekend bookings as the campground is full on weekends, but that is OK as we can stay in wineries. We are about 12 miles from the Chateau. We have already paid for a month at the storage in San Marcos and now it seems that we will not be using it for 1/2 the month. Oh well, as my Dad used to say, "It is only money".

Robert and Elaine were also here, so we had a "Happy Hour" or three with them. I forgot to take photos!! Grr.... It was hard to say goodbye as I felt there was so much more to talk about.

Here are some pictures of the park and some of the other rigs. We are kinda out of place here:
