The most palatable instant was Juan Valdez. Actually pretty good but most always sold out.
So asking around the take was roll with Keurig but not the cheapest maker, spend a little more for the better units.
Walked into COSTCO and it was $50 off and included a variety box of flavors for their better maker.
Even the brewed Starbucks sux compared to the rest.
The use your own grounds adapter is excellent and included.
We’re currently having extensive concrete and block and landscaping work done at the house so we packed up the RV to get it out of the way and are camping our way to Dumont Dunes.
Many Elks lodges around the USA have nice full hook up RV parks usually for $20 a nite if you stay the week maybe $25 otherwise.
No drama check in ya just take a spot and pay the bartender or their is a drop box. Done deal.
Affordable alternative if you need to rent a full or self service meeting room or hall for a function like a wedding with a cheap full bar.
People walking their dogs walk by in the morning will most always accept a cup of coffee or Coco.
I think they want to know who is this curious guy with the Toy Hauler?
The bar is always cheap and nice.
We’re at the Palmdale Elks and having a beer at the bar watching MLB playoffs there are all kinds of people we meet.
Ya see those orchards out in the desert and wonder who owns them?
Or homes out in the middle of nowhere and who lives there?
They all have a story and like anyone those people get cabin fever and come into the Elks bar for a $5 cocktail and burger special or the cheap drinks and dinners.
One nice girl Susan came in last night.
Susan owns 70 acres out in the Mohave and her Orchard is peaches, plumbs and apricots.
All really sweet tasting like you can not get at the market.
Her husband died suddenly and her now being financially comfortable she donates all the fruit to various organizations in the Antelope Valley.
“The high cost of water is what’s shutting down the orchards” Susan told us.
She has wells with wind powered pumps and gravity fed irrigation.
“My son and a grease gun keeps it all running” she added.
Everyone has a story.
