Quail Ridge RV Park
Monday, Apr. 3rd Bill was up early and had his coffee made in a thermos. Gibbs and I slipped out for our walk and then Tom came by around 7:15 to pick Bill up. He drove my hubby to the Ford dealership in Sierra Vista to get feedback on when Black Beauty would be looked after . Then he carried on to the Jeep dealership for their own vehicle. Deb K also was in town at the Chev dealership with her truck at the same time. It was a family affair!
No morning sky picture today
but this little guy should bring sunshine 💓
Funny
thing is they are all owned by Lawley’s. Bill and Tom were not met with the
best of news and that just set our day off on a sour note. We try hard not to
let things get to us but sometimes, that is really really hard, especially when
you are already on the downslope and it gets steeper from there. By the way,
thank you to all my blog and Facebook readers for the positive and supportive
comments. We really appreciate you. 😊
When all else fails, post a
picture or two of Leroy Jethro Gibbs
So, back
home, we just hung out. We cancelled a reservation we had made to visit Nashville 😠and also wiped the slate clean on our calendars for the time being. Instead of
leaving today, we would be here until Friday – at least. News later in the
afternoon indicated that there could be further delays of which I can’t even
talk about or I’ll get all messed up again. We had sandwiches for lunch and
then sat and each of us finished our books, needing the distraction. Where is a
puzzle when I need one?
It is blurry, sorry, but it sure
was a quick tasty meal
After
taking Gibbs for a very windy walk at 3, (it’s okay, I had a good hold on his
leash) we walked over to Deb and Tom’s for a short Happy Hour. It was very hot
inside their lovely home mainly because the strong wind was from the southwest
and was quite noisy. An hour and a half later, we said goodbye, although it was
another nice visit with our 4 friends. My head was aching and I just needed to get
some fresh air.
Bill is a fast eater, likes it hot.
By the time I sit and take a picture,
he's almost done
I wanted to show you the special thing I added
to the top of his serving.
We’ve
probably had more sand/dust blow in this afternoon than we had all the time we
were in Park Place. The countertops are gritty within minutes after wiping
them. For supper, I made sloppy Joe’s and they were delicious on the homemade
buns we bought in the Q. I thought eating would ease my headache but when it
didn’t, I took a couple of Tylenol and worked on my blog.
This has
not been the best day; the news isn’t good as far as timeline and cost. We have
some decisions to make. Oh yeah, we did
walk up to pay for our stay until Friday morning – for now. Despite the 26 – 35
mph winds, which will last until 10 pm and bring us a cool day tomorrow, we
reached 75F/24C today.I managed to catch the sunset tonight
At least the start of it.

Thank you

I'm really sorry things are going a little sour... the upside is you have love along the way for alot of support. God's blessings to get you through all this.
ReplyDelete"Go tell it o the mountain"
Thank you so much. I love how you indicated who you are! ❤️
DeleteHope it turns around for you. Thinking positive thoughts.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
DeleteYou are in a safe place that you know and friends to help you.
ReplyDeleteYou will soon be on your way home.
Thank you Loree. Fingers crossed that we are on our way sooner than later.
DeleteI know exactly how you feel ... but things usually happen for a reason. You're meant to stay there for awhile ... and how can you not smile with that "KID" of yours and his sweet face!!!
ReplyDeleteNot sure what the reason is but i do believe in that too. Maybe just to spend more time with great friends or maybe because the weather on the route home would have been bad.
DeleteYes, Gibbs is our sunshine regardless.
Oh dear, I'm sorry to hear the news. I do hope things improve more quickly than anticipated. You're in a safe place (even with the winds), and good friends nearby. I hope you're able to enjoy your time there.
ReplyDeleteThank you Maebeme. Time will tell and we are blessed with friends and the Good Lord watching over us. We pray our decisions are the right ones.
DeleteBetter days ahead!!! These days will make us appreciate the good ones even more.
ReplyDeleteDeb
Oh dear, I do hope the news improves on Friday. At least you are in a good place to wait and are safe.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
So sorry to hear about your revised schedule. Best of luck.
ReplyDeleteOh Patsy I'm really hoping for good news before Friday. Darn! Nice to have friends with you.
ReplyDeletePatsy, I'm so sorry you and Bill have to deal with this. Prayers there is some good news to be had in all of this. Hugs to you both. Having friends around help. I wish I could send you some puzzles...I really get involved in them and lose myself.
ReplyDeleteThe weather up this way (Ohio) has been good for a couple of days and then storms with high winds and tornadoes. It comes out of the west and south. We are looking at thunder storms tomorrow with high winds and possible tornadoes. It has been off and on for a month or so. We had this last week too. Maybe that is a good reason to slow down. Not fun in an RV. Wishing you good weather when you get to leave and hope the bill will not be as bad as they say.
ReplyDeleteAs you know, I'm very aware of how unpredictable repair times can be. We just spent an evening watching tornado weather reports, so it may be best you don't hurry to the central part of the country. Enjoy what you have.
