Pleasanton Visit

This is Holly and Buster, with their Christmas sweaters heading out on the trail at Shadow Cliffs Regional Park yesterday. They love exploring together. Our stop in Pleasanton is to visit sister-in-law Mary Sites, and her miniature dachshund Holly. Going for a bird walk at Shadow Cliffs is becoming a tradition when ever we stop in Pleasanton. You can see our bird list here. We are parked in Mary's driveway as we usually do, but this time I did not hook-up to her electricity because of our solar. We have been gone a week now, and only one night have we been hooked up to AC, which was at Lake Solano.

In regards to the continuing saga of our "check engine light" in the Serenity, I spent most of yesterday getting an appointment with Mercedes-Benz of San Jose.  They are going to squeeze us in to their busy schedule on Wednesday morning.  Although there is a dealer here, Mercedes-Benz of Pleasanton, they could not get to us until Friday.
