Life in Southern California!

Jan 4 - 8.....The weather has been fantastic in southern CA (warmer than normal). We have enjoyed the pool/hot springs a few times, hiked in Long Canyon, and went to one of the casinos and to see an Elvis Impersonator! The show was in one of the lounges - Ronnie East was the impersonator and we talked to him briefly before the show and found out he was from Houston and went to a high school near Mike. He left Houston and worked as "Elvis" in Nashville, Las Vegas and then Palm Springs. He had a great voice & made a really good Elvis, singing for for 2 hrs. Yesterday Dixie's brother & daughter came to visit us so we spent time at the pool & the playground. They also spent the night with us. Mike & I went to visit friends that we met while at Camp Verde in Oct. There are now at the park next to us - we had dinner and played some cards, having a great time. Today we are packing up and moving to Twenty-Nine Palms, about 50 miles up the road!
