Off We Go! The Highway 99 Express Is On Its Way

We departed at 9:00 and pulled into Aunt Kaye’s at 5:00 PM… It was a good run today!  We needed a “funny” to get the day stated.

 

In Bakersfield, 140 miles out, we stopped at Bill Lee’s for brunch.  They have great food which keeps us going the rest of the day!  We are now “regulars”.

On 16th Street in Downtown Bakersfield

A good run today… zero traffic

We took Aunt Kaye to dinner at Strings… Wow!  They were so busy!  We even had to wait 20 minutes to get in…. Normally, we go for a late lunch!

We told Aunt Kaye that should anything happen to her, we would take Mitzie (her baby dog) and make sure she had a great home to live out her days.  Aunt Kaye came to tears!

Aunt Kaye at 95 still has her appetite!

Sue tries the artichoke ravioli

We had a great meal and afterwords, we went to Aunt Kaye’s house for a visit before going to Wine and Roses Spa for the evening.  At our hotel, we went to the lounge and again listened to the greatest piano player while downing some drinks!  We slept until 8:30 the next morning!
