Santee Lakes, CA

Woke to no water this morning – cold snap during the night froze the hose. Wait a minute – this is San Diego – what’s with the temperatures below freezing???

Ah well, it back up to 63 and water has been running for awhile.

Santee Lakes, CA

We got a new refrigerator and a lot of annual maintenance work completed. But they are under staffed and it was a slow process. After twice having rescheduled, we were just glad to have it done. The new frig is nice!!

Finally to our winter space in Santee!!!! Boots was able to back right in. We have the stream out our back window and a very wide open space for our designated lawn, with a gazebo, picnic table, and big California Sycamore tree dropping leaves/sap everywhere.

Valencia, CA

Finally, we head into Valencia / Newhall / Santa Clarita / Stevenson Ranch – whichever. It seems the Camping world is built on the intersection of these 4 towns. While the address is Newhall, the staff joke about how depending on where you are standing (retail store, repair shop, parking lot, sales area, etc.), you could be in a different city. Lucky for us, our GPS correctly finds the location no matter which city we enter.

We parked out in the lot last night so that we would be here bright and early for them to begin the work. With our solar panels, we have enough power to set up the satellite dish and read/cook before bed-time.
