Mexican and Muffins . . .
Today was a pretty quiet day, nice for a change. I got up about 10:30 and made coffee. We were still pretty full from dinner at the casino last night so we didn’t have a muffin like usual.
We both spent the morning catching on Internet stuff since we had gotten behind in Las Vegas due to the power being off at the Thousand Trails park the last 2 days we were there, and then being on the road.
Then about 2:30 I got together with Nick to check out the leakage problem he’s having with his black tank valve.
Unlike mine, Nick’s valves are buried back under the rig and are cable-operated. We lubricated the cable and got it moving better. We’ll see how it works the next couple of days.
And in the meantime, I’ll do some research on how to replace the valve if it’s necessary.
About 4:15 we all headed up to Oakhurst to meet our friends Dave and Lynn Cross for dinner at El Cid, our favorite local Mexican place, stopping at the bank first on the way.
We had a good time getting together with Dave and Lynn, but we were kind of disappointed in our meal. Don’t know if it was an off-night, or if we’ve been spoiled by La Fonda or Esther’s Taco House, but it didn’t seem to be as good as last year. It wasn’t bad, just not as good.
After stopping off at the Von’s in Oakhurst for some groceries, we got home about 6:15 just ahead of the rain. In fact it’s supposed to rain for the next couple of days. Nick happens!
About 9:30 Nick brought over some of Miss Terry’s great blueberry muffins. Unlike this morning we’ll definitely be having muffins for breakfast tomorrow.
