This is a short post. We spent the past two weeks in Antioch, CA. staying at the Antioch Fairground RV Park.
We came to Antioch, CA do medical lab work and see Larry’s kidney doctor; mission accomplished. We stayed longer to help my dad with a garage sale'; mission accomplished. Wanted to get our flu shots early so we would have time to develop immunity before arriving in Livingston; mission failed. Came for flu shots; got the flu instead. And there went the last five or six days!
However, we did have some fun times. Almost daily, it seemed, we visited the Smith’s Family Farm for our favorite foods:
And…one tomato slice per sandwich….
Does life get any better than this…one slice of tomato on a slice of homemade bread with Best Food Mayonnaise? (Only a hint of salt would have made it any better tasting, but we have to be good.)
And don’t forget the fresh, fresh, did I say fresh, just out of the field, corn. Does his smile say, “this is delicious?”
California is known for its excesses. We ate the corn and tomatoes to excess, but nothing like the excess on this hummer:
This stretched limo was stretched thin! He had to cut across the corner to make the street corner as his wheel base was too far apart to turn a regular 90 degree turn. I guess if we stayed in California eating tomatoes, mayo on homemade bread sandwiches, we would soon need this limo to move us!
We are now on our way back to Livingston, TX. It will take about two weeks to cross the 2,000 miles back home. I have some interesting stops planned on the way. Check back to see some of the interesting sights along I-40. Got to go eat lunch, another tomato sandwich made with tomatoes we picked up this morning on our way out of Antioch! Yum Yum.
