Transition Day

It was a day of transition yesterday where we went from Bridgecreek in West Covina back to our home community in Vista. There were some last minute duties - performing the last coffee and tea service for our last meal there - and we packed and said our farewells to Arlan and Eileen, the Managers. Josie took a couple of parting shots of the Community, such as the coffee bar in the dining room which is nicer than ours at Arcadia:

and the entry/foyer area which is very nice:

We left at approximately 9:30 and headed to Menifee to set up our fifth wheel. It was interesting to see all the snow that was in the mountains as we traveled south from West Covina:

It was certainly cold on our days off and this really shows how cold it really was during the rain storm we had in Menifee last Friday. The snow level was very low for this time of the year.

We had many nice site choices as Tuesday is a great day to arrive at any campground. Most of the people that were scheduled to leave over the weekend were all gone by Tuesday AM. This is the shot of our site that we will have until late Saturday afternoon:

After setting up our rig, we traveled the final 50 miles to Vista and went back to work for the rest of the afternoon until 3:30 PM when we left to go back to our Fifth wheel (again) until this morning. This time we drove the Jeep to save some gas. It is very convenient to have it set up less than an hour away and it makes it easy to get to during breaks in our work schedule.

All of the people we saw at Arcadia after we arrived back ran up to us like we had been gone for weeks and hugged us and shook our hands to welcome us back. It made us feel like we really are making a difference at this community.

We are now getting ready to leave here and head back to work which starts at 11 AM for us today. Our schedule has us working (on duty) straight through until 3 PM tomorrow afternoon when we can return to this nice location and enjoy a couple days of "sunny" relaxation...
