Sunset at Pismo Beach, CA

Friday night Dave and I walked to town to have dinner at Brad's with our friends Debbie and Bill.  We saw the most amazing sunset and I had to keep stopping to take pictures of this wonder of God's creation.

We reached our destination right on time at 6 pm,  just as the sunset views were gone.IMG_8837

I usually edit my photos  using the Picasa program, but this time I posted them just as they were from the camera.  I'm so glad that we took the time to enjoy this sunset!

Where was Lady Luck Tonight?

IMG_7562

Tonight we stopped at Rolling Hills Casino RV Park in Corning, California.  I used up my free $5 slot play, and an additional $5, and won nothing.  My gambling leanings are over, done, kaput.

We stopped at this casino in honor and remembrance of our friends, Margie and Bruce.  Margie wrote about stopping here to eat at their wonderful buffet.  It was, indeed, a fine buffet.  We happened to be here on one of the senior 1/2 price buffet days (Tuesdays and Thursdays).  After signing up for the free Shasta Club Card, which also included $5 of free slot play, we paid a total of $14.95 for the two of us to eat at the buffet, non-alcoholic drinks included.

Margie and Bruce sometimes stayed for free in the dry camping area, but we decided to pay $25 and stay in the full-hookup area.  This area uses self-registration, which went smoothly.  It's a very short walk from both RV areas to the casino, unlike Seven Feathers Casino, where we had to take a shuttle bus.

Our drive today from Canyonville, OR  to Corning, CA went very smoothly.  We saw some beautiful, snowy scenery but all the roads were clear.

Tomorrow morning we have a short drive of less than 100 miles to Grass Valley, CA, where we have an appointment at DiMartini RV on Thursday morning.  Our bedroom slide didn't ever get fixed properly, so they are going to attempt to fix it.  As long as we could get the motorhome there by the end of this year, Fleetwood agreed to extend the warranty on the motorhome.

Sunset from our Back Yard

Last night as Dave and I sat down to watch a bit of television, I happened to notice this view of the sky outside our back door.  I grabbed my camera (I’ve learned to keep it handy) and took these photos.IMG_6179 Our new neighbors to the west recently built a new fire pit and the smoke from their fire last night got included in these pictures of sunset.   The time was around 8:30pm and my camera was aimed toward the southwesterly sky.IMG_6180IMG_6181IMG_6182

Thanks for reading my blog, even when it’s a “nothing happening” day.  Well, the sunset happened, but that happens every day, whether we notice it or not!

A Beautiful Sunset

Welcome to my new blog follower, LaPlaya.  Thanks for your comment about Crater Lake.  I hope your trip there will be as nice as ours was!

I won't say that the rain is over, because it rained this morning.  But now, at sunset, the rain has stopped, things have dried up, and we have had a bit of sunshine and a gorgeous sunset.  I went for a walk around our neighborhood this evening and took a few pictures.

It's great to see some blue sky!
