Today is Valentine's Day--a time to remember all the people we care about. Ken and I sent e-cards to our grandchildren--no paper valentines in the mail.
Our Valentine's celebration was a Town Band concert titled "Hollywood Goes to War." We went over to Green Gate Grove at 6:30 p.m. to pick up Hardy and Judy, but it turned out that Hardy felt like he was coming down with something, so he stayed home. Jan and Steve are both still sick too. Concert 3, illness 3. The odds aren't good.
The selections were arrangements for symphonic band of movie music. The selection we enjoyed the most was a soprano saxophone solo of "What a Wonderful World." What does this have to do with war? It turns out that it was included in the soundtrack for the film Good Morning, Vietnam in 1987.
This morning we walked through Retama Vilage again, taking special note of what people were using under their Bigfoot leveling system feet. Choices included nothing, plywood squares, glued together 2 x 4's, orange jack pads from Camping World, and Dica pads (available online for $52 each). We're going to start out with the less expensive Camping World type.
Here are some real characters we spotted by one motor home. Definitely easy-care pets!
This morning Ken ran the new compressor for 10 minutes with no load to break it in gently, as per the manual. It definitely made more noise than our smaller one, but Ken hopes that once we put a hose on it, the noise level with subside a bit.
Today was a lovely warm day with quite a bit of sunshine--after the morning clouds burned away.
