We've spent the last week at the Spring Escapade in Stockton California. We belong to this great RV club, Escapees, and this is the west coast rally we attend every year. It's the last time the club will be having separate east and west coast rallies and next year it will be in July in Gillette Wyoming. I'm glad, it's going to be more convenient for us to attend in the middle of the summer. There are lots of classes and crafts and meetings of all types but for me, after 6 years, the socializing and the fun times are the best part. This is our Lazy Daze group at happy hour behind our RVs.

Mimi had some meetings to attend afterwards and she'd won free passes to the Asparagus Festival held this weekend in Stockton. So, Marlene and I went off to that on Friday. It was fun, basically a street fair with the usual booths and foods although heavy on the asparagus. This is a pic of the Stockton waterfront, it's a canal that connects to the Sacramento River Delta and then to San Francisco Bay.

The weather has been perfect since last Sunday, warm days and cool but not cold nights. We're packing up now to drive over to Petaluma for a couple of weeks of appointments and business stuff.

Oh, I think the closing on our house in Mérida was on Wednesday, or maybe Friday. I've sent the final payments and the paperwork is all done so I believe we are now full owners of a big old stone house that needs a lot of work. Exciting!
