An Unpleasant Task

Saturday: (05/19) Lou made open faced English muffins with summer sausage, eggs and cheese for breakfast.The day didn't start out well. We noticed a leak from under the toilet riser. I drove down to RV World in Grover Beach again and bought a new gasket. While I was gone Lou did a through cleaning of the pot. Hopefully that is the problem. After very through showers we were off again to Grover Beach to visit some thrift stores before lunch.

Lunch was at the Pismo Fish And Chips Restaurant. Of course, Lou and iI had fish and chips with coleslaw. Dawn had clam chowder.


An otter plays in the water near a surfer that never notices him. I think, if I surfed, I'd pay more attention. Traffic was really bad coming it to Pismo beach from either direction possibly due to a vintage trailer show at the Pismo Dunes RV Park. We missed it so didn't get to tour any but they do look nice.

On our way home we stopped at Rite Aide for some Thrifty ice cream. Dinner was stewed chicken and peppers.

Sunday: (0520) Breakfast at Francesco's Restaurant In Arroya Grande. Lou and I shared a Corned Beef Hash and Eggs, Dawn had oatmeal. We stopped at a thrift store then went to the beach. We walked up Pismo Beach to the end then took some stairs up the cliff. At the top we found Marie Callendar's restaurant so we had some pie an called it lunch. I like their pecan pie ala mode. Lou and Dawn had banana cream pie. Dawn stopped in for a visit at Nan's Book Store in Grover Beach while Lou and I inspected the nearby hardware store. Lou made salmon with rice and peas for dinner.


After dinner we walked out to the golf course where we heard some of the wild turkeys then we went down to the arboretum for a look. One of the pieces of art in the arboretum that was interesting. A snake made from bottle caps, a hose nozzle and the handle of a welding hammer.

This evening I finally posted some photos from the past month or so. They do make the blog more interesting.

Monday: (05/21) Cheerios and bananas for breakfast. We headed downtown and started visiting thrift stores. For lunch we stopped creekside at the Creeky Tiki across the creek from the mission. I had a Monster Burrito while Lou and Dawn eac had Cobb Salads. By late after noon we had completed visiting all the local thrift stores and a few other shops downtown so we headed back to camp. Dinner was leftovers. I had salmon rice and pancakes with peanut butter and jam. Lou and Dawn had quiches with with cheese and crackers and some apple strudel. In the evening we watched the final episode of House, one of Lou and Dawn's favorite shows.

Tuesday: (05/22) Gluten free pancakes with strawberries for breakfast. We relaxed all morning at camp. We did enjoy the turkey flocks stroll through our campground. About 2pm we finally left camp. First stop was for more fish and chips and chowder at Pismo Beach Fish and Chips for lunch. After lunch we went to Arroyo Grande and explored the antique shops there. Since it was hot, we stopped for ice cream at Rite Aide on the way home. Stir fried vegetables with tofu and hotdogs for dinner.
