Merry Christmas

I want to wish each & everyone of you (my greatest fans) a very Merry Christmas This Christmas is bitter sweet for Kathy and I  our hearts are sadden of the news of Kathy's brother Billy Jean he has COPD and if he has any virus that might strike him flue or whatever he will not be able to fight it so please pray for him as  we are. Our  plans are to just put our home (RV) in temp storage for a few weeks in Jan. and drive to Arkansas to spend some time with him and his wife Paulette. So we will not be in Yuma this year. On a good note we will spend a a few days with  two of our four children and our Granddaughter and Grandson and family who are coming home the 28th through the 2nd  Please enjoy your time with family and friends this Christmas  as they could be taken from you at anytime. Until the next post have safe travels.

Tucson & time

Can't believe that December is here already where did November go? Kathy & I are trying to get around to seeing friends & finish up on appointment's before leaving for Yuma the 10th for a few months.Our Thanksgiving was great hope yours was also. Now Christmas is around the corner, where does the time go? Oh well as you know all plans are written in jello. I guess I'm rambling on today just feel a little rushed to finish up and move on. Where does the time go? Looks like another winter storm will start moving in tonight and bringing rain and colder temps need to move some plants around and put some things in basement to stay dry and we have two appointments today and need to get tires rotated on truck and call a few friends and go to storage and change some things out and need to do some shopping. Wanted to meet up with  my cousin and husband in Casa Grande for lunch before they leave Phoenix friday but running out of time. Where in hell does all the time go? Oh well suck it up and move on David. Hugs to all and safe travels.

Thanksgiving at the Graser RV park

The Graser RV park is really our Daughter & son-in-law's home. They wanted us to stay on their property on the 49ers country club on the 6th fairway which they moved into this summer well after many seconds of debating the request we ask to look the parking area over first and if it was opened enough to receive satellite and close enough for sewer we would accept their offer When we arrived in Tucson we stayed at DMAFB for a week to look the parking area over we then took them up on their generous offer and had a 50 amp hookup put in and I was able to run sewer to a clean out  all is well and good so It looks like we have a great place to say when we are in Tucson. We have had a great time playing cards and having dinner and walking their dog and walking the golf course and of course Kathy has her birds . I even got my clubs out of storage and  have been getting prepared to play on Thanksgiving day I just hope I don't embarrass my son in law (Jeff) or his dad Jim any way we will have a great Thanksgiving and hope all of you do the same. Until later safe travels.

Casa Grande and Tucson

We stopped over the weekend and visited our friends that live in CG and had a great visit stayed at Casa Grande RV resort (used to be a western horizon park) anyway used Passport america and got 50% off daily rate. Usually don,t endorse many parks but if you are in that area it is a nice well run park.

Went on to Tucson Wed. and are parked at DMAFB went over to see our daughter & son in law Wed. evening they bought a home in  49er's CC  this year and it is a very nice home they both work hard and long hours and are certainly deserving to live there. Very proud of both of them  we will be here till at least the 1st of Dec so if you are in the area give us a call. Until later hugs and safe travels.

Laughlin NV

Arrived yesterday afternoon at Riverside rv park been here a few times and not a bad place to stay for a few days. Traffic thur south LV and  Henderson was very busy and it was 10:00am which I thought was a little unusual. We had a buffet at Harrah's last evening and it was good not like the nugget in Pahrump oh well we don,t eat out much but the casinos are different and we did a few slots but still didn't pay for the buffet. sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.. Will do a little shopping today and fill up with fuel for our drive to Casa Grande AZ tomorrow where we will spend the weekend visiting our friends Jack & Carol Van. Then on to Tucson for a month or more anyway the weather has been great. Until later safe travels.

Pahrump NV

HI all arrived in Pahrump  yesterday for a five day,s rest and enjoy the sunshine stay. We were able to use passport america  for a great savings. Went to the nugget last evening for buffet it was OK but for sure have had better. Today the park had a BBQ plate for $7.00 per person the food was great and the C&W music was a big plus and I won a Preferred RV Resort cap where we are staying. on the ticket drawing  the folks here are very friendly and make you feel welcome. The escapee park here won,t let you wash the rig but they do here and believe me it sure needed it after all the driving in the rain we did on the PNW coast. I  got that done this morning , almost walked pass it coming back from the BBQ. We plan to visit Death Valley while we are here never been there need to see it before the congress closes all national parks again as you can tell by my sarcasm  I 'm not happy with Washington DC these days. Kathy and I are fine we have sunshine hummingbirds and NASCAR whoopee. well not much more to say will leave here Wed. and go to Laughlin NV for a couple days, then to Casa Grande to visit friends before we arrive in Tucson for a Month. Until later safe travels.
