The final wrap-up days of my 8 day visit to Pismo Beach.

The weather has been so great, so it was really OK to wake up to major fog and overcast on Friday.  I put a YouTube fireplace on the TV and sat back to chill.  It was actually quite cozy.

It did eventually clear up, and realizing I had less than 1000 steps by noon, I set off for a walk to the pier.

Eric and Amber invited us to join them at The Moose for cocktails and HOT SPOT.

I played my same numbers again, and HOLY COW …. I won $275!

The Moose didn’t have enough cash to pay us out, so we had to walk to TWO places to get our money.

Saturday morning started with rain and extremely calm seas. Actually, the calmest all week! When the rain cleared out, God blessed us with a great view of multiple whales AND dolphins! Deb was so thrilled as she really wanted to see them.

But all things eventually end, so we got our act together, thanked the room, and checked out.

I wanted Deb to see the Butterfly Grove in Pismo, so we stopped and saw a few butterflies and savored the smell of the eucalyptus trees. Too early to see the migration, unfortunately.

Our flight to Phoenix left around 4:15pm, but we had plenty of time to enjoy our “last supper” at the Spirit of San Luis, right next to the airport.

We safely landed in Tucson at 7:30, and I am always BEYOND GRATEFUL when I get home and find that All Is Well. Well, I do have a power issue with my hot tub, and the lock broke on my gate. But as my very wise sister has always told me, “If money can fix it, then it ain’t a problem.”

Nothing in life is perfect. But it doesn’t matter ….

THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME.
