Our day started yesterday with the Rose Parade on TV while having a relaxing breakfast. It still amazes us how people can develop such beautiful floats out of flowers and natural materials, and have them remain on the floats throughout the parade. It is still one of our goals to go to the Rose Parade and also take the tour of the float preparations. Maybe next year.
The football bowls then started and, fortunately, the Penn State game was on first. What an exciting game it was. Penn State was able to pull it out at the end with a field goal to beat LSU 19-17. It was bowl victory number 24 for coach Joe Paterno. Nobody will ever beat that record. The Rose Bowl was another good game but did not have the suspense and dramatic ending as the Penn State game. Ohio State won that over Oregon (26-17). Anyway, the games were fun to watch.
Since we have been eating a lot of (leftover) ham since Christmas, we decided to have something different last night - tacos. They were a welcome change. Unfortunately, we both kind of picked and munched all day, so our diets are postponed for another day. Nobody begins a diet on New Years Day, do they?
It really feels good to know that I don't have to go to work and kill myself today. We don't have anything officially planned, but we may go and explore the other Western Horizon campground that is closer to Palm Springs for our next stay. That would put us closer to the flower shop where Josie is scheduled to work during Valentine's week. We don't need to move until February 1. We're thankful for that. With a lot of free time now, we will plan to explore many other areas and enjoy our stay. What a relief...
