We thought we would grab a late lunch but you know what, they are not open until 4pm. No wonder the parking lot is empty! It&#8217;s a good thing, I guess, because we needed 7 parking spots for our van and Airstream.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/danlin\/4331257473\/\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2713\/4331257473_34a12f362d.jpg\" alt=\"ava and jessie the cowgirl\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>We peeked out of our Airstream at 3:45 and you know what we saw? A long long line of people waiting to get in&#8230; and a million cars around us. What the heck is happening? We said good-bye to our cat Yoda and headed for the line. Once the doors opened, I noticed that there were a lot of people with gray hair there. And lots of them asked me how I got into this place since I am not 55 and over. I told them I was a snow bird, just like them, and they all gave me a thumbs up.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/danlin\/4334123000\/\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4066\/4334123000_ac5106c450.jpg\" alt=\"P1180081\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>My Dada was excited to get his beer for only $2.50.
