Bingo mania

 We've been having a ton of fun at the Moose Loudmouth Bingo. One day I won a $120 pot then Peggy won the big one $643! We got booed when the caller told the players that we both won. Then on Thursday our friend, Becky won $117 then Peggy won $114 and Heather won the big one $643.

The lucky winners.

I win once in a while. But it's just a ton of fun.

We saw Space X rockets twice last week. They are taking off from California and we get a good view of them from here.

We did another upgrade on our lot. We had the post replaced and added wheels to the gate. It makes it so nice to open and close.

We had one of our last happy hours on Sunday. Everyone is heading to their summer places. I don't know why it hasn't hit 100 degrees yet. It's just getting really nice right now.

I've been golfing a lot. Check out those socks Clarence has on! I shot a 43 yesterday, and on number 9 my eagle shot rimmed the cup, then I made the birdie putt.

Did a little RV maintenance. I greased all 6 universals on the drive shaft. Crawling around under the RV is so much fun. NOT! It's all part of getting ready to start our summer trip. We need to get the RV washed and waxed before we go too.

A little behind

 I'm way behind on the blog. We're just in our winter routine. So not a lot going on. The winter weather is gone. It's getting in the 80's already. So we love that, we had a lot of rain this year. We even saw the wash run one day. Heidi and Matt came out for a quick trip. They haven't had a good winter for snowmobiling in the UP this year.

So we had to go to the A&R for lunch before they left.

We did a quick trip up to Fox's floating bar in Parker. We stopped and picked Dennis up on the way. We'll see him this summer in Newport.

And we had to stop at Beer Bellies outdoor bar on the way back. Heidi was the youngest one in the place. It was good to see Matt and Heidi.

Peggy hit at loudmouth bingo again. I'm on a dry spell right now. We had 5 wins that day at our table. But NOT me.

But Steve hit the BIG one $585 bucks.

So we found a new way to use the koozie.

We went to the model plane air show here in Yuma. They had some really cool model planes. Even some jet powered planes. They look so real.

Made Chicken, Bacon, Ranch Pizza last night. It turned out so good. One of my favorite pizzas. I love the BGE!

This is one of the best pictures of all time. It was in Horton Bay on lake Charlevoix at the 4th of July parade.

Still in love

 We have a problem with our floor in the RV. Peggy called our dealer National Indoor RV Center in Las Vegas and talked to the parts guy, Bruce. She sent pictures of the problem and our VIN number. He called back two days later and took our credit card number and the next day we had a box of planks delivered! We still love our RV dealer. We've had great service every time we've dealt with them.  I wouldn't buy a motor home anywhere else. 

It's just a small thing but we need it fixed. So now we need to get our floor guy, Frank to come over to fix it.

Out to dinner at our favorite place, A&R Grill again. I think we're going there tomorrow too.

We had another good happy hour on Sunday. The weather has been a little cool, but it's getting warmer already. It's going to be 75 today! Maybe winter is over already.

The weather is perfect for a round of golf with my golf buddies.

We're still going to Loud Mouth Bingo on Tuesdays, but we are on a little dry spell. But friends at our table are still winning. Gloria hit a $200 win.

Katie is going to the vet again today. She's still having problems with the bug bite on her little face. 

The fire box in the BGE broke. I called my connection at the BGE store in Atlanta and talked to Golden. He sent a new fire box in the next shipment to our local ACE hardware. I love BGE.

Doing better

 Katie is doing better. She had to have surgery on her bug bite and two rounds of antibiotics to stop the bad infection.

She never did tell us what got her. She hates the vet's office.

The weather has been the Best ever, it's still in the mid 70's in December, the average is 67.

Nice and sunny!

I won at Loudmouth Bingo again, $112 big ones! That day our table won 3 in a row, two $112 pots and one $224 game. It's just a ton of fun!

Mike won one of the $112 pots at our table. You get a lot of ones when you win.

Of course we had a good time at A&R Grill with a bunch of friends. I think we must go there once a week, The food is just too good. I love the mushroom burger, it's THE best I've ever had! Just had one yesterday.

Sitting out by the fire pit. That's Katie in her bed next to the fire.

I really don't like to put pictures of food in the blog, but, this is the best fish you can get! They don't stay on the plate too long. Our friends Bill and Marsha brought us some Lake Perch from Michigan.  You cannot get Perch out in the west.

Peggy found a good store for pest control, "The Bug Depot" here in town. This guy knows how to get rid of bugs! We were at the store the other day and I asked why he doesn't sell Owls, he said, "they don't work," as you can see. "If you put up an Owl, you don't know what you're doing," he said. A waste of money and time.

Heidi sent us this picture of their BGE and I asked what that was. It's a Brining and prep container for meats with a cutting board, all built in one. She sent me one for Christmas! I love it and can't wait to try it.

Great Weather

 The weather has cooled down to a great temperature; around the mid to low 80's. The golf courses are back open after they "over seeded" the fairway and greens. The courses always close for a month to seed. 

Last week the Tunnel to Towers Foundation Rolling 911 Memorial  trucks were downtown for a couple of days.

They had a nice setup. I support this foundation for $11 a month. I think it does good work.

It was a nice exhibit on wheels. Lots of good information on 911. Well worth seeing if you get the chance.

My phone has a new camera update that lets you take some wide angle shots.

And some funny special effects photos.

We've been playing a new game at the Moose we kind of like. Loud Mouth Bingo!

Peggy won $118 big ones!

The next week I won $98 bucks. So we really like this game! A lot of ones, but they all spend.

Our good neighbors, Gord and Maureen were here for 3 weeks. We had a couple of big feasts and a bunch of happy hours. And some Little Beers did flow. 

Then we had to go to Barney's house for a nice happy hour before Gord and Maureen headed back to the great white north.

We had a bad thing happen to Katie. We think she was bitten by something next to her eye. It didn't look good. And of course it was on the weekend, so Peggy took her to the emergency vet and $250 later and within a few days she was back to normal.

Katie and Gracie had their first play date last Sunday at our 2 o'clock happy hour. They just love to run around and have fun.    

And another bad thing happened to my Big Green Egg. The fire box broke! It has a lifetime warranty, so I have been talking to Golden at BGE to get it replaced. We met Golden at the Eggtober Fest way back in 2017 at the main BGE store. 

Had to do a little RV maintenance. The power shade up in the front bed came out of the bottom track. It wasn't too hard to fix except I dropped it and it hit me right in the mouth and chipped my front two teeth and gave me a fat lip.

The thing is huge, but we got it fixed. There's always something to fix on an RV.

We liked the lights on the trees so much we added a second light. It looks great at night.

Peggy said that if I don't get off my computer and help with the dishes, she'll slam my head on the keyboard, but I think she's jokinigfuhaieuneiugrbaiubfpiaeuhgpiuehvipnvpiwufhpqiurhfpwiunvpwiurfh!

Just having fun in the sun!
