Park Place RV Park
On Thursday, Nov. 28th we were up and moving by 7. I was out the door by 7:10 and had a wonderful walk. It was clear this morning and the sun had yet to appear when I left the Suite. As I walked towards Quail Trail and was half way to Plymouth Ave, it popped. There are some views better than others so I waited until I was through the congested areas to take my pictures. 😊
Good morning!
There are
two ladies that I meet most mornings. They spend their winters in the sister
park to ours, Arizona Sun RV Resort, and depending on the time I get out, we
meet at differing spots. They go around twice so I meet them twice on my single
route. Today, after good mornings were said, they said Happy Thanksgiving! I
had one ear bud in my ear as I listen to Sirius 70’s and didn’t hear what was
said. Also, it took a minute since it isn’t ‘really’ my holiday.
One of the pretty things on my walk.
I told
them I was Canadian so they understood my hesitation in responding. 😊 Back home, I had my tea and cereal. It was then Gibbs’ turn
so we walked for his ½ mile, in a different direction (confusing him all to
heck!) and back home along Quail Trail. ♥ I delayered a bit and sat outside on the patio with him in the sun, with
my book.
We walked back to my favourite home
I love how the sun's ray is shining on it.
Love the Saguaros
It's neat how this one is having babies
from the bottom rather than the top.
Patty
texted to see if I wanted to go for a walk with her around 10ish so we headed
to the residential homes. Duncan and Bill were just returning home so they
drove and we walked to show them the lovely adobe-style houses in the Arroyos
area. We ooh’ed and aah’ed at them and took a final lap around the park before
joining the boys at home.
The pool table is covered with food.
Stuffing, candied yams, green bean casserole,
spinach salad, mashed potatoes, gravy, rolls,
turkey and ham. Oh, and under the tin foil is a
brussel sprout casserole dish. Yum!
We had an
early lunch, around 11:30, and I showered before starting to make the Stuffing
w/Sausage dish I was also making for the potluck. It didn’t turn out too badly
but because of some variables in the recipe and my doubling up, it was mushy. Crap!
I quickly improvised by making another box of Stove Top dressing at 10 to 3 (3
o’clock was dinner time) and mixing it in. I think that did the trick, it
tasted pretty good. 😊
A nice turn out with food for more.
I wish I'd taken a picture of our table mates. Duh!
We sat
with our friends, of course, and our other friends, Jess and Jesse. We love
their company and knew the 4 of them would also enjoy each other. The food was
great, so much, even for a gathering of 20 (ish) and everyone had leftovers. It
was close to 4:30 when we left the clubhouse.
We used our plates from Gayle
for the first time.
Dessert for me was Pistachio salad
and pumpkin cheesecake. I was pretty full
so only had a bit.
Back home,
Patty and I took Gibbs for his walk while Bill loaded the dishwasher. I emptied
Madame IP of the leftover dressing and we settled for the night. There may be
plans to head out of town tomorrow but we won’t know until morning. We reached
a pleasant high of 67F/19C with fully, sunny skies. What a wonderful day!
It was a pretty sunset too
Good night!
Thank you
for your pop in and Happy Thanksgiving!
Nice relaxing day for you. I had Thanksgiving dinner with Dick and his family. First time since we lived with our parents. Been over 60 years.
