FRIDAY, JUNE 7:


Today I drove 233 miles traveling from Oakhurst, California to Dublin, California.


The worthless video below is 27 minutes long chronicling today's mundane activities.

MY DAILY EMAIL SENT ON JUNE 7, 2018
Hello,

This morning after I woke up I drove 150 miles to Livermore, California where I took my car to the local Toyota dealership for its first routine service. I made the appointment a month ago figuring this is where I would go over 5000 miles. I figured it pretty good. The mileage was 5160. Over 3700 of that was from the last 15 days on this trip. It will need it's 10,000 mile check-up when I get home in three weeks.



The only place I planned to visit today was Mount Diablo State Park about 30 miles north of here. It took me forever to get there. My navigation sent me on a long tortuous route. Maybe the navigation picked this route because of a problem on the freeway, it was bumper to bumper on my drive back. I started to drive to the summit but the road was so awful I figured it would take another hour to get up there and after yesterdays extended journey I had had it with the mountain driving. So I turned around and left. I did snap a picture of the view from as far as I got.



So I headed for my hotel which was only twenty miles south. I am staying at the Hyatt Place in Dublin, California. Dublin is 37 miles east of San Francisco.



I got to the hotel at 2:00. I need the rest. Yesterday was fun but exhausting. I just got done eating dinner. Tonight I brought back food from Black Angus Steakhouse. I don't think I have ever eaten there. I had teriyaki grilled chicken, baked potato and macaroni & cheese. It was delicious.



I'm so afraid of coming back home and gaining weight that I don't eat anything all day and then eat what I want for dinner. As long as I keep busy during the day I don't get that hungry. But I'm missing out on a lot of free breakfasts at the hotel.

That's it for today,

Tim
