Temecula, California

Temecula Old Town
Yesterday  morning headed to  Temecula.  There is an old town there where there are lots of shops.  We just did a drive by, and went on to find barbecue at Lucille's Smokehouse....it was yummy.  we both had ribs, and left very full...we also found a car wash to get the dust off the truck.

Today we headed to Valley view Casino for a free buffet, and play a little slots.  The buffet was supposed to have lobster tails, but they would not be ready until dinner.  We chose to eat anyway.  It was a great buffet, and the desserts were fantastics.  Rollie and I then went to play some poker on the machines, and we hit four of a kind....so since we were up, we headed out.  On the way home, there was one of the 13 California missions, a beautiful mission chapel, with a very old cemetery..  Here are a couple pictures of the mission and Rollie's patron saint, St. Anthony.

It was founded in1816....and still being used.

Well that is all for now....we have been taking on line courses with the American red Cross.  We have joined the DOVES, which is part of the Escapees.  It means Disaster Operation Volunteers Escapees.  When we get back to Corpus Christi, TX we will get more training with our chapter, and will be able to volunteer with them.
