I just returned from yet another really nice weekend on the Riviera. This last time I arrived on the Riviera on Wednesday as I had a work conference in Palm Springs. My oldest son was able to join me on Wednesday and keep me company. As I drove back and forth to Palm Springs, he was out job hunting for Police Officer jobs there in Imperial County.
Thursday was Michael's Birthday and we celebrated that evening by just hanging out and watching a movie with friends out there. We watched 2012...ironically enough the morning after watching that movie we had a 2.0 earthquake with the epicenter literally 2 miles away from us.
Friday night while waiting for the rest of the gang to show up, Michael and I joined Greg and Don for a "mini" ride to the mudpots by Gregs house. It was the perfect evening ride. Weather was perfect and it was just plain relaxing.
Saturday was spent walking around the vendor rows for Tierra del Sol down at Truckhaven. Tierra del Sol is the largest 4x4 event in Southern California. It was incredible...all the jeeps and 4x4 vehicles all over the place. It was literally a city set up for the weekend.
Saturday evening we celebrated Michael's birthday. Teriyaki Chicken, Rice and Vegies, Michael's choice for dinner and of course cake for dessert.
Sunday, we had planned to go riding around and check out the "playground" for 4x4 vehicles and I was going to take pictures, however, unfortunately when we woke up this morning it was raining and rain it did for the rest of the day. You don't want to go 4x4ing in the rain (or maybe you do) Mud just finds itself everywhere. And mud out by the Sea is like clay and just sticks to you and pretty soon the shoes you are walking in are like weights on your feet.
All in all, it was a great weekend!
