John and Jane met us in Quartzsite, our first stop on our way to San Clemente from Lake Havasu. The moon was full and the night sky filled with mysterious clouds. The next morning had a cloudy sunrise then a wonderful rainbow spread out above our camper! What a sendoff to California! We hit the road and another rainbow met us in windy Palm Springs right over the wind turbine farm. The San Clemente pier featured a beautiful pelican surveying his territory. A few days after we set up at the campground for our new job as camp hosts, we met Mark and Jan and drove to Dana Point to check out the big sailing ships. We enjoyed Thanksgiving at Mark and Jan’s, as well as Ron detecting the beach and I rode my bike south through the San Onofre State Beach and Camp Pendleton. The next day after work we decided to show each other where we had gone the previous day, so we started over to San Onofre State Beach, and just happened to meet up with the ranger who had hired us, Ranger Martin. What a treat we had when he gave us a personal tour of the beach – we learned so much about the history, geology and nature of the area. We also got to see Surf Beach right by the San Onofre Nuclear Power Station, a unique area decorated by surfers which include a wind vane made out of a surf board! David and Joanna came up to visit this weekend too, and we checked out beaches again with them. It was wonderful to see them again, its been a whole year! So excited to be by them and hope to get together often!
