2/22/08 Tulare, CA

Hi Everyone,

On Friday 2/22/08 I head back north towards Tulare. I will be meeting up with some of my online friends on Saturday.

I arrived kinda late to find a camp site so I stayed in a rest area for the night. The next day I met up with Elaine and Therese. We had lunch at a local restaurant and I was telling them about my walkabout and the things I had seen recently in Visalia and Exeter. They told me they had art work on buildings there too. So after lunch we were off to find more murals for me to get pictures of.....
We had a blast this is a very charming agricultural area. I really enjoyed my visit here. When we were done running around it was time to say goodbye....but no one wanted to say goodbye! LOL
Elaine then offered for me to stay the night with them. Her husband was a Minister at a local church and they had a room in the building just off the church. There was Elaine and her husband Charles, and Therese and her husband Mike. The 5 of us had dinner together over at Therese and Mikes. We had a wonderful evening...eating, playing cards and chatting!!
I want to thank Elaine, Charles, Therese, and Mike for all the warm loving friendship they showed me. I really appreciated all they did for me during my short visit. They have asked me to come back for a visit.... I will stop back when I come back out to do the northern part of CA.

For now it was time to get some rest- Sunday morning I was heading back to San Diego area- friends from back home are there on vacation and want me to stop in for a visit!
