No word on Willie yet


Was kind of waiting to see if we heard from the dealership about Willie before I wrote this today – but it’s starting to get late so probably won’t get him back until tomorrow.
Yesterday was kind of a bummer day. First the weather was cloudy and cool so we didn’t feel like going anywhere. And the NASCAR race at Daytona didn’t have the finish I’d have liked. The #18 blew an engine ¾ of the way through the race. Hope it isn’t another year like last year for him. If Kyle couldn’t win I wish Danica had of won.
We did go out in the evening. We’d made plans on meeting our friends there for dinner. So we bundled up and went over there. After waiting about ½ hour for them I finally called her only to find out she’d emailed me earlier that she was sick and couldn’t make it. But I hadn’t checked my email…..
Did see what I thought was a full moon coming up over the palm trees in the plaza. Very pretty.
Then I found out the full moon isn’t till tonight…..Will I remember to go out and look at it?
The Plaza was very busy last night. When we first got there the music we went to hear was playing and several people were line dancing.
I sure wish my camera took better pictures in the dark. Will have to see if there is one out there that does – without me having to adjust anything.
About the time we discovered our friends weren’t going to show a jazz group started up. And the musician we’d come to hear just stopped playing and the dancers stopped dancing. Come to find out the last night of the Mazatlan Jazz Fest was last night in the plaza. It was a “jam session.” 
We listened for a while but it was just to cool and windy to really enjoy it. So we ended up coming home and having leftovers.
I woke up about 1:30 a.m. and got up and download a book off the Internet. It is called The Leisure Seeker by Michael Zadoorian. It’s about an older couple – he has Alzheimer’s and she has terminal cancer. Much to their children’s horror they get in their RV and take a last vacation. They follow Route 66 from Chicago to the Pacific Ocean and then they go to Disneyland. Very interesting book. Makes one stop and think. Finally got back in bed at 5:30 then up at 7:30 when Bill got up to take Willie in. Either a nap today or to bed early tonight.
And just awhile ago we got a call from our house sitter. Something in the upstairs bathroom leaked over the weekend and the ceiling in the downstairs bathroom is all wet and buckling. Lovely. He is going to see if he can figure out what happened and get it stopped and then we get home we’ll see what else needs to be done.
Never a dull moment.
The wind is really rocking the RV today – at least it’s not cold out. And the sun is shinning.
