Earth Shaking

I was inside reading when the RV started to shake. I thought someone was outside shaking the RV. I got up and looked to see if someone was messing with us. We have some friends that would play funny games on us. But it was a 4.8 earthquake! It lasted for about 30 seconds. That was the first time I have ever been in an earthquake. I thought maybe California slipped off into the sea. But, No it's still there. 
We went to a house warming party at Barry and Carol's house. Nice big crowd with a lot of good food.
I took smoked salmon and jerky. Always a big hit.
People were 3 rows deep.
A good selfie with the new home owner, Carol!
Charlie brought his old toy out. It's a 1925 model T truck. 
It's pretty cool and you don't have to hand crank start it. He took 25 years to rebuild it himself.
The only Gage on it is for the radiator water temperature. 
It turns Red when it's hot.
I took Peggy out in the desert to do some shooting so she could go take the CCW class at Sprague's gun shop and Big Green Egg store. It was a one day class from 8 am to 5 in the afternoon.
She passed with 10 out of 10 in the kill zone. She sent in all the paper work and should get her permit in 90 days.
We took Lois out for dinner on her birthday at Wheezy's. Had a nice dinner and some fun with birthday candles and cheesecake!
Got this cool picture of Peggy with the sun setting in the west.
Going to start the Brine for our Turkey to cook on the BGE tomorrow. On the Menu is Turkey, Stuffing, Taters and Gravy, Green Bean casserole and Pumpkin Pie with Whipped Cream.

More Big Fixes

Just Fixing More Stuff. Our main TV would not come on sometimes. You never knew when it would work. So it was time for a new one and of course I had to rebuild the mount on the wall. The new one did not fit. Only one trip to the RV superstore.
Then the next thing was the toilet! It would not stop filling the bowl with a small drip, so after a little time it would overflow on the floor! So, it had to GO!
 I took it out and changed the seal to try to stop the problem, reinstalled it and still had the same problem! So Peggy called the local RV superstore and got a new one. She called a plumber to install it but when he got here he said they don't install them in RV's. So handy Dan had to do it himself!
Installed and working with only one trip to the RV superstore! It's way better then the old one. It's more like one in a house.
It's not all work; we do get to party at happy hour at Rod and Karen's lot. Nice big group of friends in the park.
We made a trip to Mexico.
Peggy got some new glasses and I got a Pedicure. It was great.
Lois made it down for the season.
Happy hour again!
We had Koby one afternoon. He's a good dog.
And we also had Max while Lois worked in the kitchen.
Max at lunch at Wheezy's. He loves to go and behaves at the patio.
