Strawberries and Ice Cream

Good evening,
Today the temperature warmed a bit and as the bug has tires that I now deem unsafe we used the Civic a car that I prefer to save for the future.

We drove to Antioch where we let Lois off at Kaiser for a much needed doctor appointment and started to drive out but she quickly discovered her doctor was elsewhere and she had no appointment after all.  She was very disappointed as she had hoped for some relief for her shoulder.  So we picker her up and she came on the appraisal with us.

The home was large and at one time had been perfect but now after a bank foreclosure it was not so sharp.  The pool was green, the spa empty, the pool controls were gone as was the front gate and some of the cabinet doors in the kitchen.  All in all though it was a very nice home located on a court with 5 bedrooms and a huge family room.  Once we were completed inspecting then we drove the comps.

Lunch was at CostCo where the ladies had a hot dog and drink combo for $1.50 and I settled with a piece of pizza.  Then we visited Toys R Us and eventually headed home.  I've been searching for used tires for the bug but so far they are not to be found.  New ones will be about $350 for all four.

Tomorrow Kallie and Keanna get to learn all about their new classrooms for the school year.  I'm going to do the walk through with Kallie at 12:30 and Steve will handle the walk through with Keanna at 3:30.  Then in the evening the girls are coming to stay the night with us and in the morning we will go to Sabbath School.  We are joining Bob and Carrol for lunch at the Garden in Stockton and then coming back home for a bit before the girls go back home to Steves mid afternoon.  That evening we are driving to Santa Clara to join Jerry and Donna for dinner.  They are in the area because their granddaughter is involved in a beauty contest in the Santa Clara area for the weekend.  Fun stuff for everyone.  Monday morning they will drive back to Weed, a long drive of about 6 hours.

Tomorrow at 11 some guys are coming to check out the motorhome, they are taking it to Burning Man at the end of August.  Then on Sunday a family comes to pick up the coach for a three week trip to Yellowstone.  I believe it is as ready as I can make it, oil change, new tires, step now works etc.

This evening we decided that the strawberries would taste better with a touch of vanilla ice cream so I made the trek to Safeway and found some low fat ice cream that tasted pretty good.  Of course now I'm coughing up a storm but I could be doing that with just drinking water.

So I wish all of you a pleasant evening,

Love
