Sweetwater Summit Rally

2013-03-18_13-34-50_50Thank you so much to Bob & Diana Simons along with Dave & Jerry Galecki for hosting a wonderful rally. Sweetwater Summit is located south of San Diego,in Bonita high above the Sweetwater Reservoir near Mt Miguel. Nineteen rigs attended including some invited guests, Vick and Patty  (who decided to become new SKPs). The skies were hazy but gave way to warm, sunny afternoons. The mornings started with hot, morning coffee courtesy of "Brewmaster" Ed and Doris Kalenda and ended with a glowing campfire thanks to Wagonmaster/Firestarter, John Pumphrey.
The days were filled with plenty of chatting, catching up with friends, lounging or doing whatever you enjoy….some enjoyed reading while others went for bike rides.

A large group enjoyed a nature walk with the park ranger.The ranger shared the area campground was once a dairy farm. Various indigenous plants such as the San Diego Flower, wild cucumbers and black mustard were seen.The view from the hill was outstanding !

Thursday afternoon the local Mexican restaurant was invaded by a hungry mob and it was enjoyed by all. But one of the highlights of the week was definitely the dutch oven desserts prepared by Janet and Richard Huskey. So yummy !!
