We are still ant-free! Hooray! Now we're thinking maybe we brought them with us from one of our one-night stopovers on the way from Coarsegold. We don't usually do the Borax thing for overnights unless we see ants. Big mistake apparently! (Ruthi said one of the orange trees in Bakersfield was touching the RV and that may have been their access point. If so, the Borax wouldn't have helped anyway.)
Well, now we can put San Diego back on our list of winter locations we like. It suits us on several levels. Santee is not a big, bustling town, which we like but, if we want excitement, it's 5 miles or less to various freeways into the city, the beaches and all sorts of great places to visit AND there's a trolley(station 3 miles away) that will get us to most of those locations, too.
The weather (when it's not being really unusual like it's been off and on since we got here!) is good. Actually, even though it's been much warmer than normal lately - over 90! - it's cool enough before 9:30 and after 4:30 to ride our bikes.
We'd be foolish not to be concerned about fires given what's going on in the L.A. area right now. But, at least, we're mobile, as long as there was advanced warning, which is not always the case. It's certainly something to ponder.
