December 23, 2008


Woke up and had tea and coffee. Jerry called Rockhound state park and found out they had no room but they did have an overflow area that we would have to share. No big deal for us, we are never home. Charles helped Jerry park. Ed came down to watch, he had a Casita parked up the road.
Jerry explained the weather to Ed and told him he should stay another day. They left, but I think they are back in their old spot. The wind is pretty bad.
We went into town to the visitors center to get information on places to go and places to eat. The woman working there could not recommend a place, but if she had a volunteer there the volunteer could make a recommendation. So, we asked her where she ate and she told us. We chose to go to the La Fonda Restaurant. They had a Mexican buffet. Rather good Chili Renos, they were cooked on the grill not deep fried. They had a good salad bar also.
We found out that the library had WiFi so that was our next stop. The internet was so slow that we were getting frustrated. We asked a man with a lap top if he was having problems, and he said that it was slow. If we wanted any speed we should go to the Patio Café.
We stopped in and asked about the connection and went back to the Casita to get our power cords. The Patio Café was nice. Very clean. The people were friendly and we stayed about an hour. Had coffee, cream soda and carrot cake. Thanked them and left for home.
The wind had died down considerable. Birds were flying and even perched on wires. I think we will be spending two more days here.
