Can’t Even Imagine Summer Here!

Park Place RV Park

On Friday, Mar. 25^th we turned the a/c on as soon as we got up at 7:15. It didn’t come on for a while but my walk was the hottest yet. I was in shorts, a tee and a long sleeve lightweight hoody and at 60F/16C, I was anxious to get home. 😊 Now, that’s warm!

Because I think this is appropriate for everyone
It is my first picture today

I’m going to have to stop letting Gibbs pick up the little bottles that he loves. If we don’t bring it inside, he rings the bell to go get it. If we do bring it in, and eventually have to take it away because he’s getting pieces off it, he pines at the side of the garbage cupboard. He’s so comical! The morning was spent inside, with the blazing heat on the east side of the Suite, it wasn't a sitting outside day. 

Once more, the sunrise was probably
a beaut - but we aren't up before 7:30 as a rule

I’m not complaining just grateful that we aren’t here beyond April as it will be unbearable to us Canadians, not used to it. Right now, this is why we come as it is still cold back home. When Bill had decided that he wasn’t going flying, I set about making my keto butter tarts regardless. He sat with Gibbs and stayed out of my way. 😊

This is the kind of day it was

When it came time for lunch, after they were made, I fried some bacon for his toasted bacon sandwich and then fried a quesadilla, of sorts, for me with cold meat, cheese and avocado. Yum, I need to do that more often. Yesterday, at Albertson’s I couldn’t find the keto low carb tortillas that I get at Walmart but Bill found some that were half way there. I want to stock up on the La Banderita carb counter ones before we head home.

This is the kind of tortillas I
need to find and stock up on

After cleaning up from lunch, I walked over to start a new puzzle. It won’t be too challenging, I don’t think, and since Rick says it has to be done before I leave, I’ve got my work cut out for me! 😊 He said they might have to keep taking pieces away so I can’t finish it. Ha ha. I worked away for about an hour and a half before hearing from Lori that they had just exited from Los Algodones and had the ride home.

Making the dough and fitting it into the pan is the finicky part
but for a keto guilt free treat, I'll do it!
They are yummy.

I was ‘on call’ (sort of) to let Schatzi out if they were going to be late. Knowing it would be an hour at least for them to return, Bill and I walked over to let the little pipsqueak out for a break. She is such a darling, quite the difference from our 23 lb. monster. ♥ We walked back and both of us commented on how it would be ridiculously hot in a couple of months. The 3 co-hosts will be staying for the duration, a couple of them have never experienced southern Arizona for the summer.

My crispy lunch
Another yummy treat

Back at home, I poured a diet Mountain Dew instead of making a cup of tea. It went down a whole lot smoother today. Then I delved into my Jack Reacher story. I could sit and read it in one sitting if I didn’t force myself up to do other things. LOL it is so good! So, the rest of the day was spent like that. Lazy-like.

My next puzzle
Pretty, huh?

I was relieved when I heard from Lori that they had returned home from their day’s ride, safely. 😊 However, we didn’t hear from our other ‘kid’ that she got home safe, so I hope that doesn’t mean anything negative. She’s probably exhausted from two day’s travel and getting unpacked.

When Bill was grilling the burgers,
Mr. Gibbs (who won't get any) waits patiently

For supper, we went simple again. Seems we do that a lot! Tonight, it was bacon cheeseburgers, loaded. I couldn’t get anything else in between these buns if I tried and I wondered if I could squish it enough to get my mouth around it. Oh yah, no problem! Delicious, as usual! We loaded and turned on the dishwasher and I was grateful for each and every time the a/c kicked in.

I think I can, I think I can
Open wide!! Third yummy

It’s 7 pm and I can’t help but think of our friends and family out in the desert dealing with this heat without it. I’m feeling quite spoiled and wimpy right now. I think if we didn’t have it, we’d deal better with the heat but because we do, it hits us harder without it running. LOL

This is what we see out our east windows
My first clue to go out and look to the west

I could see the eastern sky showing some pink and that only means one thing. The sunset was a gorgeous one so I ran out and captured it on my camera. This was a really nice day and I hope you can say the same in your neck of the woods. Wherever those woods may be!

And I'm sure glad I did
It's almost the same cloud formation as the morning sky

*sigh*
Good night!

Thank you for the visit today.
