Sunday morning I got up and Ken and I went to breakfast in Yerington before I headed to Ca to pick up Adam for the week..(Eric's kids were supposed to come but they went camping instead)...Adam got home from basketball camp on Sat and called and wanted to come. I took a quick trip over there to get him and see Betty...she's doing so well it's amazing! Adam had a great time at camp and got "Player of the day" twice during the week. Apparently Sammy Haggar and a 1992 Olympian stopped by the camp..well worth the money that was spent sending him there. Kudos to his mom and dad who kept a coffee can in the house for the last several months storing any extra or earned money there was to pay for the camp. Ken and I helped out a bit, as every time we bet something between the two of us, whoever lost had to pay the coffee can...Looks like he wants to go again next summer, so it starts over again.
Got Adam and came home. During the time we were leaving Placerville, I called Ken to let him know we were on our way and he said he was after a huge rattlesnake! Got home and he said he didn't get it, but Adam walked up the deck and saw it laying by the trees out front..I screamed and ran, well it was dead, Ken had gotten it from under the shed out back. Turns out it wasn't a rattler, but a gopher snake....so he felt bad, but hard to tell the difference when it's huge and under the shed...
Today, we took the Dodge out for a little ride, went to blm land and Ken let Adam drive, he did pretty darn good for the first time driving a stick shift...he really seemed to like it! So much dog hair on the seat cover, Ken tried vaccuuming it but didn't come off so we removed the cover and the seat is awful, will be looking for a new cover soon!
Monday, I ran to Scolari's and decided to cheat on my veggie diet! It's been so long since i've had a bar b q ued burger...and BOY was it worth it! Awesome job Ken did...shud have taken a picture..tomorrow we'll hang around, as Wed we have to go to Carson City so the Patriot can have its five year checkup for the powertrain warranty. Ken will head to Carmichael, to give Don a hand in loading up stuff from his house to take to TN and we'll be here in Yerington. Sunday, will go get the grandkids, Seth and Mason for the week, and some camping will be done! Life is good!!!
