Yuma Lakes RV Resort
On Tuesday, Nov. 22 after Gibbs and I got out for our walk around the park’s west perimeter, Bill and I walked up to the Bocce Ball court. I took my mug-to-go with my tea. It was a beautiful morning, 53F/12C, sunny skies and very little wind. I wore my wind breaker; Bill was in a t-shirt. As Janet, at the courts, said ‘you must be Canadian to dress like that’. π We’re proud to say we are!
The sky this morning on our walk
There were 5 courts in play today with 22 participants That is a great turnout. Out of 5 games, I only came out the victor in two and Bill did the same or less. We had fun and he agreed that they are a good bunch of people. That will be it for our play here at the park though, so we walked back home around 11.
We decided
to have lunch before laundry so I made us each a grilled cheese sandwich. They
were delicious and a great change.
It was a nice turnout
and a nice morning to play Bocce Ball
We sorted
clothes and I stripped the bed to wash the sheets as well. Bill drove up with
me because I wanted to stay and work on the puzzle in between cycles. No point
in the truck sitting there for 2 hours. There were poker games going on in the
other room as I worked away. When Jasmine, a young Californian girl, came in to
work on a puzzle, I invited her to join me. She was shy at first but we soon
hit it off and made it our sole job to finish it today. π
Bill
helped me fold and took the basket back while I went in to help Jasmine. By
3:15, we’d finished and although disappointed to find 3 pieces missing, we were
proud of the finished picture. She is probably close to 20 (?) but is here for
the week with her brother and parents. That was fun! We took pictures and
parted ways. Back home, Bill and Gibbs were outside beginning the pack up. It
doesn’t take long but the mat and bbq were away already.
Thanks to Jasmine, the puzzle
got finished before I left π
I made
the bed and Bill went to fill a water bottle so we’re well stocked on drinking
water – Gibbs and I. π I poured myself a beer margarita and
started my post. I have a book to finish so Bill can read it next. He finished
his book this afternoon and I’ll start it tonight. We’ve both read a lot of
books so far since we left home and there are more to come!
For
supper, we had leftover hamburger helper with a salad. That was good and
filling. We watched another episode of The Voice tonight and then watched the shows
we recorded last night. This has been a great day!
Last year, Nov. 22nd we were
staying in a Walmart in Benson
It was a bounce around trip because
of leaving home later
Good night!
Thanks
for the pop in.
Another well rounded day. Games, puzzles, reading and a little laundry to top the day off. Enjoy the weather.
ReplyDeleteThank you, it was indeed!
DeleteLooks like the RV Park offers lots of fun things to do.
ReplyDeleteYou probably have your favorites.
While your in Arizona don’t you do any touristy side trips
or check out the areas where your staying for that time period?
I’m sure you wouldn’t want to go every day since you
are able to enjoy the Park your in.
Hope you enjoy your winter and you get lots of sunshineπ€

Glad enjoyed your day. Amazing how laundry just keeps piling up so quickly isn’t it? The puzzle looked interesting, very busy. Unfortunately I just don’t seem to have patience to do puzzles any more, yet I can read for hours in the sun. Safe journey.

Thank you Deb. It would be nicer to do a puzzle in the sun! haha
DeleteAnything over 50C is definitely lovely weather, especially when you're going to be active. Sounds like the bocce was fun.
ReplyDeleteSafe travels today!
If we'd been there longer, I would have gotten into the shuffleboard and horseshoes. thank you Maebeme.
DeleteI had to laugh. The last time we were in Vegas I was getting ready to go swimming and was just watching a lady do laps. Some friendly Americans looked at me and said "You must be Canadian as only you guys go swimming when it is this cold." I laughed and said that 70 was a perfect temperature for swimming. Especially after leaving a place that still had snow on the ground.
ReplyDeleteThat puzzle looks awesome.
God bless.
You're absolutely right! Usually they ask like this "you must be Canadian, eh?" It gets a good laugh. :)
DeleteLooks like another awesome day! A great grilled cheese is awesome to have now and then! Glad you played bocce ball, I remember how you enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteYes, I've loved Bocce Ball at Pilot Knob and these guys were fun too. I could have played more games but they only play 5. :)
