Winding Down

 We are winding down this year's stay in Yuma. It's time to hit the road and see some new and some of our old favorite places. We'll be leaving this week. First stop is a Freightliner dealer to get some work done on the motor home. Should only take a day or so. They have always taken good care of us. 

The weather was a little cool this year. But it's nice and warm now. In the low 90's. We had a good year anyway.

We're going to fill the shed full of our stuff we leave here. The hardest thing to leave is the large BGE. We'll take the Mini-Max Egg, but it can't do some of the things that the large does.

You can see it's a little warmer now.

Mr. Owl is NOT doing his job very well. 

My latest bird deterrent attempt. We'll see if this works. Keep your fingers crossed. We can't shoot them! 

And this is how I got the thing up there. Fat guy on a ladder. It was pretty scary! Peggy was down on the patio holding the ladder with her phone ready to call 911.

And Katie is napping on the job too. She is supposed to keep the yard free of wild life.

This is the largest lizard we've seen here on the lot. They are OK. They eat bugs.

Stealth Peggy sets up the camera to see Larry the Lizard up close. Just good entertainment.

We made our last trip to Mexico. We had to get a couple of bags of these really good nuts. They are good and salty and go well with a cold Beer. No sea salt crap! I hate sea salt.

Great Weather is Here!

 The Great weather is finally here! We had record low, average temperatures the whole winter. Now the good weather is here and all the Canadians have flown north for the summer. They used  up all their 182 days. We miss them all and hope they had good travels on the way north. We'll see them all this fall.

One of our last big happy hours.

Dinner at Gord and Maureen's. Gord fried some really good fish for dinner. We had tons of food. Maureen made a killer pecan pie.

I brought S'mores for more dessert. Only burned my finger once.

Glenn, Sandra, April, Cliff, Peggy and I at the best restaurant in town, A&R Grill. Glenn promised that they are going to come down next fall for the winter. We'll see. April and Cliff just bought a new RV and will be down too.

Got this really rare picture of Doug drinking a pop! Never seen that before. That is just NOT right.

Now that most of our friends are gone we have to have creative happy hours, just me and Peggy. Having a "Margarita Happy Hour".

We've been working on our summer trip, making reservations. It's time consuming and a pain in the butt and some of the prices for the parks have gone way up! And thanks to Joe the price of fuel is going up too! One park in Butte, MT cost $136 a night and it's a dumpy KOA! We are not going there! We love Butte but are not paying that much for a dumpy park.

The wild Dogs are having fun on the run.
