Settling for a Couple of Days, It’s Warm and Windy!

Davis Camp Park, Bullhead City, AZ

On Saturday, Oct. 29th we were nearing the end of this fall month. Hallowe’en is just around the corner and on the road, it always reminds me of the year we stopped at the Mesquite, NV casino. It was the year we made the acquaintance of our friends, Jim and Sharon. We didn’t really get to know them, just spoke and Bill got a tour of their American Dream Class A.

We didn’t see them again until we were all in the pool together at Lake Havasu RV Park later that same winter. ๐Ÿ˜Š We’ve bumped into them a couple of times since then, once in Yuma Lakes and once at Silverview in Bullhead City. This is a shout out to them back in their home province of Alberta. We miss seeing you guys! Memories are sure lovely to have. Funny, but special how some things just trigger them.

in charge ๐Ÿ’“

This morning, we were determined not to get up before 7 since it wasn’t a travel day. The boys were up at 4:30 for a nature call, me at 6:30 but we all came back to bed. That was a nice change. Looking out my window and seeing the blue sky and palm trees in the near distance, made me smile. Oh yes, it’s warm here and it was a treat not to need the heat on last night. I hopped in the shower first and enjoyed the pressure of hookups. Aaah!

We had breakfast and left Gibbs in charge at 9 when we drove to Sam’s Club, not too far from our park. We only had about 4 things on the list but came out with about 14 but that is usually the way it goes. We needed the things we bought. I did find a nice lumberjack-style ‘shirt/jacket’ for cool nights and chilly mornings. I really like Sam’s Club and Costco clothing and I think their prices are very good. Here or at home.

Driving into Ridgeview RV Resort

Back home, we had a coffee and relaxed for a bit over the lunch hour. Bill and Gibbs snoozed and I read a few more chapters. Around 2, we drove down the road to Ridgeview Rv Resort to see our friends, Roland and Lori. ๐Ÿ˜Š 

Schatzi, the little sweetheart

They had difficulties this past spring with the refrigerator in their home on wheels. Thank the good Lord, they are all fixed up and back on the road again.

It was a great visit and we’ll see them for a few days again as we’re moving into that park tomorrow. 

Lori and I prefer the sun
Sometimes Schatzi does too ♥

More reading back home and I started supper just before 6. Air fried chicken thighs, corn for Bill, squash for me and potatoes to share. This was a nice meal. We even have one little cherry pie to share if we’re still hungry. As it turned, the meal was great and we didn’t need dessert tonight. At least we ate at the appropriate time tonight! ๐Ÿ˜Š

It was a tasty meal, the chicken was perfect!

The evening was spent quietly. We watched a movie together and I finished my book. This was a great day!

Good night!

Thank you for taking the time to pop by.

  4. How lovely that you did not need to turn on the heat. Enjoy the sun and the warmer weather (even if it is a bit windy).

    God bless.

  5. Nancy Kissack, There were the few burn out days, but in the end, we pray it is in the past and we have memories...may not be the best but...we are now moving on and enjoying the free life once again. Just grateful Bill and Patsy were so supportive to us and our needs.!
