Hot and Quiet

 Park Place Rv Park

On Wednesday, hump day, Mar. 18th, it was 7 when I got myself up and out of bed. Gibbs and Piggy were waiting and I eventually received hugs and kisses. Piggy is non-compliant which is fine by me. I'm going to call her Dirty Piggy!

Good morning!
Starting with a park coffee hour
& conversation.

We closed windows and turned the a/c on, set around 74F/21C. It will be determined later in the day when we heat up to 100F/34C if we drop it. Bill went out to help Fred move a storage shed from Site #1 to Site #2, for the next hosts. It didn't take long and 8 am was a good time to do it.

Okay, here is 'Miss' dirty Piggy.
She is only 6 days old and has
almost lost a tail, a fair amount of stuffing,
a partial squeaker but full of little holes,
she is so loved. 😍💕

He and Gibbs went around the park to check on everything and I went to the office before 9. I could smell Sue's yummy cake when I walked in. She is nicknamed Betty Crocker by a few residents who partake in coffee hour. 💖

White is over-rated anyway.
😂

It was a decent turn out this morning, and I had a nice chat - after the fact - with Mike and Mae. Mae and I discussed clothing exchanges and our closets that contain things we may never wear. Later, she brought me a very colourful top to try......it may go to my exchange back home!

Well! big progress made today!
Probably the hardest puzzle I've
done but it WILL get finished before
we leave.

The day went by with me at the puzzle, very few phone calls, a couple of actual business dealings and more puzzle. Bill and Gibbs did another run around the park at 4 and we returned home together. 

Sitting in the office,
the 2 owls I gave Sue
and a wind-up chickie
from Anne Marie.
I think she likes them.

Because of the a/c in the clubhouse, I was content to lay in my gravity chair outside for a snooze. The shaded patio had a nice breeze and yet, when I came in at 5, I was happy for the coolness of our Suite. 

Chicken and broccoli
Both were perfect!

For supper, we had chicken thighs in Rosy, the air fryer, with beans for Bill and broccoli for me. It took 20 minutes for the thighs to cook and everything else fell into place. It was a nice supper without heating the Suite much more than it already was.

Gibbs sits on us for a while
but eventually goes to the floor
where it is cooler.

It will be a warm evening, to say the least. Even Gibbs didn't want to go for his walk this afternoon, he's a wimp like we are! We did reach the high of 102F/35C by this afternoon.

A memory from Mar. 18th, 2017
Our first year meeting Lori, Roland,
Judy and Oscar at
Bullhead City, Az.
Good night!

Thank you for stopping by.

A Full Day, More Visits, More Fun and Food

 Park Place RV Park

On Tuesday, Mar. 17th, St. Patrick's Day arrived in the same, if not stronger heat, than the previous day. Today's forecasted high was 97F/33C after a pleasant 61F/15C overnight. I hopped out of bed around 7 and right into the shower. 

Good morning!

Bill was in no hurry to go to the field, his flying days are over - for now. Yes, FG, we had a plane crash. The following picture may be hard to look at, but think of how the pilot feels. 😔

Somethin' Xtra
is grounded.

I had my tea and Bill did leave our site for a few reasons this morning. One was to go with a few club members to City Hall to donate a check for the Easter Egg Hunt.

Gibbs and I admired the
red and white oleanders
on our morning walk

The other thing he did was get a haircut. Yes, he was getting a bit scruffy around the ears and he doesn't like that at all. He has a barber in town that does a good job so went and stood in line before returning home with lowered ears. 🤭

Not much different from
yesterday....but a few pieces
fell into place.

Gibbs and I went for our walk, cutting through at the dog park this time. I think he was happy to cut it short too. Back home, I dusted the living room table tops, got the dust mop and dirt Devil vac out and made a clean 'sweep'.

The place was packed!
We were place a table in the
corner near the stage.

I worked on the puzzle with very little success and came home for lunch with Bill. After a sandwich, I brushed Gibbs' teeth. He doesn't exactly 'love' it, but he likes the taste of his toothpaste so allows me to put my finger and his mouth. 😉🐕

The drinks and pizza
were good, as usual.

I had to buy pennies from Stephanie today in order to play Pokeno and then with the help of a 'Penny Fairy' was able to carry on. I sure wasn't winning! Oh well, we had a lot of fun regardless of the losses on my card. Maybe I'll go back to my original one for my last games on Tuesday.

Back at home, Gayle, John and their friends, Mary and Rick joined us at the Suite. Mainly to meet Gibbs. Mary is a real dog lover and no doubt, fell in love with our little mutt. This is the first time we've seen my sister since the fall as they spend the winter in Mexico.

The entertainment was very good

We went to Silly Al's and it was a lot of fun with good food too. The 2-person band (a couple) played well and I thought of my daughter and son-in-law. This is what they should be doing! ❤️ We ate, laughed, and even danced a bit before heading out. 

I'm glad we were able to get
together once more.

The place was packed but we got a table for 6 easy enough. My gluten-free meatlover's pizza was very good and although Bill had to wait toooo long for his, it was very good too. 

A picture of 4 good friends.
They seem well suited.

We said our goodbyes, nice meeting you's and hugs to all before returning to the park.

The sky was pretty when
we came out of the restaurant.

We missed the early episodes of our shows so watched them at 8 MST. This has been a great day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Anne-Marie made everyone these
little shamrocks.
💗💚
Good night!

Thank you for your visit.
