We made it to Ontario California and showed the family the house that we made an offer on. We spent some time walking around the neighborhood and the home. They loved it. We drove around Ontario and we were all very impressed with Ontario! The area by Ontario Mills Mall is everything you would want in an area! It has everything we were hoping for! We loved it!

We just drove to Anaheim and got our hotel for the next month or so. It is nice and will work out great! Marsha is feeling a bit spoiled as in this motel they will load our dishwasher for us and even do our grocery shopping! They have breakfast for us everyday and even have dinners most days. On Thursdays – Saturdays they have Kid’s Movie nights. During the days they have some excursions to various shopping and other things such as Knott’s Berry Farm and Disneyland.

Seems fun!

We stopped for The Buttes, Marriott Resortthe night in Tempe, Arizona at The Buttes, a Marriott Resort that is awesome. This hotel is built into a mountain and is a resort instead of the normal hotel. The service is superb so far and the rooms is very nice.

There is live music out at the pool which is built in and around the mountain. The pool has a nice water slide. Our room is a nice upgrade and has a patio out to the pool area.

Beautiful!

Today we made it to El Paso for a stop at the Embassy Suites. This hotel could use some renovating but it isn’t that bad. El Paso was dirty, but still some nice things to be had. Chico’s Tacos is a great place!

I got a meeting set up today with the incoming president of Panama. Pretty exciting. Still some details to iron out.

First night of our big move from Houston to California had us stop for the night in San Antonio Texas. We walked around the Riverwalk and had a great time! I love this city and it is by far my favorite city that I have been too. Of course I was also born here. Texans are always proud of their state.

We are all very exhausted from all the business of moving.
