Memorial Day Weekend: Amanda's Visit
My cousing, Amanda, who graduated from Army Boot Camp in Missouri last month and is now at Ft. Huchuca, Arizona, came out to visit the family for Memorial Day Weekend. She arrived in Ontario in the early afternoon, while I was still in the Imperial Valley for Matthew's Graduation. I decided that I would leave Imperial Valley at 4:30PM to get to Yucaipa around 7:00 PM. When I got to Mecca (Town on the north west shores of the Salton Sea), I got a call asking if I could pick things yup to have smores. I got into Yucaipa at 7:00, stopped off at Vons, then headed to the farm. We all chilled and had a great BBQ dinner in the patio. After dinner, and clean up the table a bit, we chilled in the nice June evening, and prepared the fire pit to light a fire. It took us forever to get the fire going, but I was successful . We let the fire burn for a little bit, then broke out the stuff for smores. Amanda really wanted smores since she will be unable to have any at Yosemit
