February 11/12 - Las Vegas

We made it easily our first day to Lucerne Valley (233 miles), home of Jim and Diana Sisk, although Doug managed to catch the creeping-crud that Joya and Jody were down with (Joya's recommended remedy: one tablespoon of Nutella).  Here is a shot of Royanne, Diana, Jim and Christina.

The Sisks are old friends we met via HSC, The HomeSchool Association of California.  Jim runs the best car repair facility this side of the San Bernadino mountains (pictured below).  They very generously opened up their home to us for a nice long visit. We got to go to an "indoor" soccer match that Christina was playing in. It wasn't at all indoor, being in fact outdoors and really cold. However, the match was fun to watch and our friend, Christina, made a goal and assisted on two others.  Thank you all for a great stay.

The girls got to drive around in the desert in an old US Postal Service Jeep.  Jim went along to provide instruction, and Christina apparently just wanted to get bumped about.
