We're definitely in California! This is I-15 going through Victorville to Cajon Pass. |
We expedited our arrival to California in order to facilitate the anticipated cataract surgery that the optometrist in Spokane had prescribed for Mark. Once here, Mark made another appointment with Costco's Vision Center in the expectation of getting a referral for surgery. Instead, he walked away with another pair of glasses and the happy news that surgery could be postponed another two years. Most likely. Ya gotta love second opinions.
At least he can see to drive again, which is handy, since he is the only driver for the motorhome. And God willing, the new glasses will suffice for at least a year.

Weekday matinees are the best! |
This coach appears to be in much better shape than the first one we owned. (Thank God for that!) It took a full week in Fontana to cover everything on our list, primarily because they had a very heavy work load. There were at least half a dozen coaches being worked on the week we were there. At about 4 p.m. each day, they parked us and plugged us into power. But by eight in the morning, we had to vacate for the duration of the work day. Finding things to do (without busting the budget) was a challenge. We saw a couple movies, took a long drive, and walked the nearby mall. The rest of the time we hung out in their customer lounge. I was super glad to finally be on our way to Acton.
We've had some great visits with the kids and my delightful little granddaughter, Sophie. The camera has been hiding in my purse during my visits, though, so pictures will have to wait until next time.

We've been fortunate to be out of the way of fires and earthquakes so far. The angels are watching over us.
That's it for now...
God bless & safe travels!
