Quiet Morning, Tyson Wells

Park Place RV Place

On Friday, (TGIF! for all you workers), Dec. 6^th we were up at the same time. I woke with a bit of concern over my left eye acting up but soon gathered that I was wearing the glasses my optometrist suggested I stay away from. Bad me. The prescription is not the best but I wear them because they are transition. I switched them before going for my walk and wore my over theglasses sunglasses. Got that? 😊

Good morning!
I am starting to love the before glow
almost as much as the after glow.

No problems on my walk nor since I returned. Phew! It’s scary when things go awry with your eyes, just like with any other aging body part. I had my tea and half a Pomelo before Gibbs and went out the door. I’m glad I changed from my heavy stretch pants to capris and short sleeves, as the morning had already warmed up nicely. Gibbs let me know where he wanted to walk, how fast and how far so he was happy.

Almost, but gee, this is so pretty!

We bumped into Jess, our class teacher, and she informed me that she got my message and had added 3 of us to her class list. Yes, 3 of us, it will be fun on Wednesday! I made my b p coffee and just as I was about to walk to the clubhouse, Bill and Duncan returned. A quick hello and see ya, and I was at the puzzle.

Yes, another 'pop' picture

Bette was doing her laundry in between cleaning the stove so helped with a few pieces while there. 😊 It won’t be done today but possibly tomorrow, we’ll see. I forgot to take a picture when I left. I was home for lunch with Bill and I reheated the last 2 pizza slices. It is still very good! We planned supper and Bill went for a quick doze until 1 pm. We all piled into Black Beauty and took a drive to Tyson Wells.

Across from the big food tent, at which
I didn't buy anything today.........is the Quartzsite Box Tent.
I guess it is Amazon returns and she has a price list.
I'm trying hard to ignore how she spelled Wednesday and Saturday.
I guess we should go on Thursday.

For those who don’t know, this is an area on Kuehn St. in Quartzsite where all the tent vendors set up and stay set up through until at the very least, the beginning of March. Some stay longer. It is always fun and interesting to walk through each year so we often go many times during our winter stay. There is no ‘bargaining,’ prices are set as these vendors have to pay a rental fee for their spot. Pay what they ask or move on, basically. 😊

With the boys snoozing, it gave me ample time begin today’s post and that means a head start before the evening closes in on us. I touched base with my best gal back home to see how she is doing after knee surgery. Pat and I chat back and forth throughout the seasons since we leave home. She is coming along, beginning her Physio and hopefully headed for a speedy recovery. Some of you know Pat, and I know you wish the same thing for her. ♥

Our sunset isn't much different than our sunrise

We walked through a few of the tents, a fair number have not yet arrived but along the main strip, it is getting filled up. We each found a few things to bring back with us and that was our first taste of Tyson Wells – this winter. We’ll be back a few times before we leave here in the spring. Back home, we met for Happy Hour and then I took Gibbs for his walk.

Bill and I stepped out of the norm tonight with a homemade Spanish/Mexican meal. I used to make tacos, years ago, but didn’t think Bill enjoyed them so I stopped. Lately, I’ve discovered that he doesn’t mind them at all. 😊 I’d bought the flat bottom hard shells and for this beginning trial, I bought a can of Hormel’s chili.

Our messy tacos were delicious!

I heated it, even though it was runnier than I’d hoped, piled it in the shells and added lettuce, shredded cheese and sour cream. My, oh my, but it was m-e-s-s-y! But sometimes the flavour takes over and all that (like loaded messy burgers) doesn’t matter. They were gooood! We cleaned up the plates and I dished out some Tillamook Oregon Dark Cherry ice cream for dessert. It has been a long time since we’ve had this luxury in the Suite! Today was a great day, 76F/24C. How many is that in a row? I love Arizona! ♥

It has been a long time since we've had
Tillamook ice cream.

We enjoyed it very much.
Good night!
