Day 106 - Elizabeth, Ross, & Cattani's

Headed out this morning for Cattani's in Gilbert.  We started our journey a year ago August by heading to San Diego to stay with the kids for nine months.   Now we are back in Arizona.   We have actually been living in our trailer now for 14 months.   Ten in San Diego, almost a month's break in Tahoe, then a little over three months on the road.


We stopped off in Tucson and Elizabeth and Ross met us at a great little Cafe Restaurant for lunch.
Martha went to college with Elizabeth about 45 years ago.   We have hooked up a few times since then, most recently when they visited us in Havasu a few years ago.


They have an awesome '50 Chevy pick up truck.   A family heirloom purchased brand new by Ross's Grandparents and handed down to him.


After lunch they invited us up to their house for coffee.   Who could refuse that!  


They have an absolutely awesome view of the valley and mountains as well as Downtown Tucson.


Great yard.   They had just returned from driving all over Europe by car, motorhome, and boat.  What a great adventure.  I am too scared to drive in Europe and Elizabeth did it in a motorhome.   Narrow streets and different rules, right hand drive at times, not for me.


Then out to dinner with the Cattani crowd minus Victoria, who is in Flagstaff at Northern Arizona University.  We ate a piece of pizza for you Victoria!  It was good!


I am going to post one more entry to the BLOG tomorrow with the numbers from our trip.   Mileage and expenses.   Lori is having a surgery done on Thursday.  We go to Buckeye to visit Matt on Friday, then off to San Diego for Thanksgiving week on Saturday morning.    It is going to be weird driving in California with a trailer at 55mph when we have been driving 75mph throughout most of the country.    Driving in California this weekend?  Wave as you pass, we'll be that annoying RV in the slow lane plodding along at the trailer pulling speed limit.
