Spring Training v5.20


Monday & Tuesday (Days 270-271)

Back into the rain


Is it time already? Really? Dang… The time to head out came upon Harris and Rick much faster than expected. Both were packed up and ready to walk across the street to Denny’s at 8:30 and good byes were said after filling up on hash browns, eggs, pancakes and some bacon or sausages (H. and R. do have some differences) by 9:30. Rick’s plan was to head to Santa Fe and the following day make it to Denver to see his granddaughter. Harris was going to see if he could head back to Lake Stevens as quickly as he made it down to Spring Training. He didn’t stop much or for very long. He snatched a few hours of sleep and would move on. He did make it back by midnight, Tuesday. Total miles driven 1550



Packed and ready to go for breakfast








One of three accidents Harris saw on the return home (2 were rollovers)






Even skirting LA / San Bernardino didn't avoid smog and traffic





One of two Casino stops for free coffee/soft drinks only (not lucky like Rick)





A controlled burn in N. California by Mt. Shasta





Getting grayer, cooler (but still in shorts)






Still in shorts




Big Sigh...not quite the same as the one I just left





No longer in shorts




Puzzle Judy completed while Harris was gone
