Our Return

We went to San Diego on Friday and came home today at around 1:30pm.  On Saturday morning, first thing, we went to the swap meet at the drive in movie theater and Chip gave me $5 and told me to get something if I wanted to.  I normally don't because they walk so fast that I can't keep up so I can't really look to see if there is something I want.

When we first got there we had breakfast at the "roach coach" - teriyaki chicken shish-kabobs and a cup of coffee.  Then just before we were gonna walk around, June went by herself because she doesn't want to feel like she is keeping someone from looking if she walks too fast and she doesn't want to be on the other side of that.  So then Butch asked if we wanted to go on our own and Chip asked me if I had the cell phone and I said yes.  I took it out of my pocket and it was not on even though I remember turning it on and it was charged.  I pushed the power button and it just would not turn on.  So, we ended up going with Butch since there was no way he could contact us when it was time to go.

We were walking around and I spotted these cell phones at this one booth that were the same model that I have, they had 2.  So I called Chips name because I had stopped but they kept walking.  They came over and I said I wonder if this would work.  All I have to do is remove my Simm card and put it in the new phone.  So I bought it for $5 and they high fived the kid who I gave the money to hehe.  I don't know why.  When we left the swap meet and got in the car I took the simm card out of my phone and the battery too and just switched them with the new one and viola it worked.  YAY new cell phone.  Well, not new because it's used and it's a 7 year old model but still, it works.

So then Sunday we went to chuch and it was a new church and they had this tv in the lobby which was huge and on the tv screen they had this thing on with this guy talking about how his 5 year old was in school and the teacher was teaching about gay marriage.  I knew right then and there I was not going in that church.  They all went in and Chip gave me $15 to go do something.  There wasn't much to do.  I walked around the block 3 times and that took up a whole 10 minute.  I walk fast.  So, I went to In and Out Burger and took 30 minutes to eat 1 order of french fries.  It's difficult to take that long eating something like that because they are so good you want to eat them fast but I knew I had to take as long as I could.

So, after that was done I just decided I'll go to the chuch and sit in the lobby and wait and there were a lot of people out there because the church was probably to capacity.  Chip said there were thousands of people there.  It's a big church.  So I sat there for an hour and waited for them to come out.

Then we went to the house and their family came over and we had lunch and had a birthday party for Chip.

Today we came home and Chip was having a hard time staying awake while driving because it was kind of a gloomy day.  But, we're safe at home now.
