Pokeno, Puzzle, Heat

Park Place RV Park

On Tuesday, Feb. 4th I was awake at 6:30 after a restful night’s sleep. When I moved, Gibbs was still sound asleep so I lay there until 6:45 before moving. 😊 There he was, with my cuddle and face kisses. I did my stretches and joined Bill downstairs. Bill had his shower and then I had mine. I have read and listened to comments regarding my pain and had decided to forego my long early walk.

Good morning!

The sky was gorgeous!

Instead, I had my tea before taking Gibbs for a short walk. We met Bette with Annie & Della so carried on together walking around the park. It was shorter for me, more fun for Gibbs and Bette and I enjoyed each other’s company. I felt pretty good.

Duncan and Bill were just leaving for the field when we returned so Gibbs and I came inside for breakfast. I had some yogourt and unsweetened apple sauce. 

Low to no winds first thing today

I’m trying to get back on track (again!). I got out my paper quilling supplies and decided to attempt one of the animals in a kit I bought from the Desert Camel craft store.

There is definitely room for improvement,
but it isn't too far off the prototype in the book.

When Bill got home, I went to work on the puzzle for an hour before returning home for lunch. I was back at the clubhouse to play Pokeno at 1 and there were 6 of us shifting our pennies around. It was fun and none of us went broke, living to play another day. 😊 When our game was over, I sat and finished the puzzle. It was difficult, but I still enjoyed it. The pieces were normal size and shapes so it was a matter of patience.

My morning result

After Pokeno, I just had to finish it!

The winds had picked up by afternoon.
Can you see the flag at the far end of the picture?
They didn't get too bad though and died off by bedtime.

Back home, we all sat together and when Duncan and Patty joined us on the patio, we had our ‘last’ happy hour as park neighbours. Our friends were pulling out tomorrow to try the boondocking experience. They won’t be moving far and since they aren’t leaving the area, we’ll see them soon. Duncan will still be meeting Bill at the field occasionally.

Bill and I had a Pina Colada. Yum!

Our neighbour, Walter, has returned from
Joshua Tree. 

For supper, I had Rosy, the air fryer, cook the chicken thighs. They had a bone in them so they took longer than I’d hoped. We had Caesar salad and a vegetable on the side and an ice cream cone for dessert. Woops! That finished off the ice cream! We may have to wait until the park’s Ice Cream Social for the next taste. 😊 I got involved watching an old movie with Bill so my blog got put on the backburner.

Happy Hour
Gibbs walked away too soon

It is a silly movie you’ve probably seen called Overboard with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. A couple of cutie patooties for sure. It made me laugh right out loud all over again and it was fun to watch. By the time it was over, I was ready for bed. I surprised myself by keeping my eyes open until 10! This was a great day. A lovely 84F/29C day with some welcome winds in the afternoon.

This was supper. It was low carb and very good!
Good night!

Thank you for stopping by!
