Trip to Sacramento - Week Four - Sunday, January 28, - Thursday, February 1, 2018

Since the girls went out on Saturday it was the guys turn on Sunday. They decided to go to the Sacramento Home Show to check things out and to get house ideas. After that they met Alex at the Tank House for lunch. While they were gone Chris and I decided to do some make ahead meals so that they'd be set for next week when we are gone. We made a huge batch of chili which we had for dinner and two different lentil dishes. They will be set for awhile with that and the ham that I baked on Monday. We also took a walk to the store and stopped at the playground for a little while. Alex came back with the guys and had dinner with us.

Monday we were going to go to Old Town Sac but it was a bit foggy and cool and Ron wanted to do some yard work. I did some things around the house and went to Target to pick up a few things we needed for Australia while he worked outside. Tuesday we kept CJ with us and took her to Old Town and she enjoyed seeing the horses, eating her first Tootsie Pop and just walking through the town. We came home and I made Au gratin potatoes with ham.

Wednesday Ron completed the last of his house projects doing some work on the garage and in the back yard while I cleaned the house and did wash. Have to get ready to leave tomorrow.  Jason and Chris took us to El Novillero for some great Mexican food with a stop on the way home at Gunthers for some ice cream.

Today was hard. I walked CJ to Ms. LaDonna's and tried not to cry.  I don't know when I'll see her again so it was hard to leave her. We also said our goodbyes to Chris, who left early for a meeting Palo Alto and to Jason when he left for work.  Came home, ate breakfast, took a shower, finished packing and we'll call an Uber or Lyft to take us to the airport. Trying to get myself psyched up for the 15 hour plane ride but since we've been getting up earlier than usual I think it might not be too hard.  I'll let you know how our flight was in our Australia Blog.  Until then . . .
