We are on our usual 2 week vacation from our winter
vacation and have headed over to southern California. On Friday, we drove through Yuma on Interstate
8 and it was interesting to see how busy that area is with all the Canadian
winter visitors. Our destination for the
first week is Ramona, CA which is just less than an hour north east of San
Diego in the boulder mountains.

We are in a 1700 square foot, 2 bedroom condo in a quiet
area east of Ramona and it is wonderful to have all that space for living. The RV does seem a little small after a few
months.
The weather has been very wet starting on Saturday with
torrential rains in the afternoon. We drove
to nearby Poway for grocery shopping and lunch on Saturday. It is a much larger city than Ramona so we
took advantage of shopping in Costco and Walmart. The scenery around the area is beautiful and
different from many other places we’ve been.
There are boulders and hills everywhere and steep driveways to most of
the homes. Not much flat ground. They probably
can’t do any landscaping in their yards without hitting boulders or bedrock.
Yesterday was cloudy and cool and the rains have returned this
morning. Not good for outdoor activities
so we are going to see a movie today. We
need to drive to one of the larger cities for theatres and will be going south
to El Cajon. Hopefully, the weather will
improve soon and we can do some hiking.
It is supposed to be dry on Wednesday, just 2 days before we move on to
the next location.

No super mail boxes here
They sure grow big roosters around here
