From a Sunny Start to a Dull Ending, Mostly Sky Pictures

Park Place RV Park

Monday, Dec. 18^th, we were all up by 7:15. Of course, I was the last to get out of bed. 😊 There was no rush. I did hop in the shower right away since I could tell that the furnace was running, warming up the floors and bathroom. Other than that, it was a milder start to the day. The clouds were not prominent first thing and we actually had a clear sky with just wisps of cirrus clouds throughout the morning.

Good morning! 
Bottom right pix looks like an explosion.

As Gibbs and I walked, there
were numerous opportunities
for photos if you looked upwards.
I did.

Gibbs and I walked after Bill left and then at 9:10, I walked over to join the ladies. There were 6 players today and, as usual, we had fun. Second to last is not bad, right? Ha ha, I didn’t do great but it doesn’t matter. Dora was the big winner today by quite a margin. 😊 Back home for lunch and then, feeling homey, I stayed put for the afternoon. Bill had picked up mail from the depot and we received a lovely Christmas card from our Buddies back home. The words were perfect.

There were some boxes of garden/orchard fare
at the clubhouse so I took some radishes and a couple of these.
Don't know what this hybrid is called but it is apple and plum.
So, Plapple? or Applum? 😋
They are quite good and yes, this is the natural colour.

By this time, the clouds had rolled in so I had no desire to sit outside. What a wimp. It wasn’t cold but in capris and a sleeveless top, I was just as happy to try my hand at more crocheting. I had to teach myself how to do the Magic Ring (again) and then I made a bad choice of yarn to do the new pattern I found. Blech, another time. Right now, I’ll stick to my worms. I made my tea around 3:45 and started my blog.

All around us, the sky was gorgeous at
4:30

No words can describe it.
And this doesn't even show the brilliant reds the
way I saw it.

Gibbs and I went for our afternoon trip around the park and then it was time to think of supper. I had ground beef out so just decided on something simple. It is the meat I fall back on when nothing else sounds feasible. 😊 A hamburger, gravy, onion, celery mix over potatoes with vegetables on the side was the result. Yum, I love this meal, at any time. I guess I grew up on something similar and it was always a favourite. Oh, we had the last slices of one loaf of bread too.

Gibbs watches as I prepare supper.

A good hearty family meal from my childhood.
Even including the home made bread (but not the olives).

After cleanup, with the dishwasher running, we watched an episode of Bosch Legacy together before I finished this post. It was a good day!

Today's Christmas adornment.
Not sure what the flower is but
it was Bill's Moms so I'm proud to wear it.
Good night!

Thanks for taking the time to see what we’re up to.
