Yuma Lakes RV Resort
On Tuesday, Mar. 25th we were in for another scorcher. We're not complaining at all BUT when this day is over, we know we couldn't survive here in the summer. 😓Kudos to those who do. We were up and at 'em at our usual time with the early routines taken care of before 9. I took Gibbs out for a quick, very quick, walk as it was warming up quickly. Before 8:30, Bill climbed up on the roof and raised our solar panels, preparing for the wash in the morning. Good time to do it.

| Good morning! |
Bill and I slipped our hats on and walked up the hill for Bocce Ball. There were 9 of us in attendance but only 8 played since it has to be an even number. The park manager was happy to sit out and keep us kids in line. 😀 I won't lie, it was darn hot so we all found shade in between games. I won 2 games and had fun but had to hop in the shower immediately upon our return to the Suite.

| Bill going for a win? |
Sometimes, that doesn't work as I felt just as hot after I'd dried off. Took me a while too cool down. Bill nipped into town to Southwest Exchange when he discovered one of our 10' dump hoses had a leak. I stayed home with Gibbs and caught up on some more reading until Bill returned.

| Gibbs and I relaxed on the couch. He's a ball of heat and soon moved to the cooler floor, thank goodness! |
We had lunch and the remainder of the day was holed up inside in the Suite. The a/c is set between 78F and 80F (25C and 27C) it had a hard time keeping up. It reached 100F/38C.
 |
| It was a good supper. I used the air fryer and stove rather than the oven. |
For supper, we had boneless chicken thighs, potatoes, cauliflower and corn. There are a few leftovers for another night or two and it tasted delicious. We finished off the last small piece each of the Caramel Apple Cheesecake. We caught up on Reacher's latest episode and it didn't disappoint, leaving our hearts in our throats as it ended. It has been a low-key day and it was just fine.

| I had a text from Bette at Park Place RV Park. She informed me that they finished the puzzle I left. Yay! Great job! Good night! |
Thank you for stopping by.
Are you planning on being back in Canada before the Tariffs kick in next week? A few of the RV Bloggers have high declaration numbers and don't want to pay more than they have to.

It's about time.
I spent a few summers in Tucson at 117, but in an air-conditioned house. I doubt I could do it in an RV. Mr. Gibbs will probably be glad to get back to cooler temps too. Love that puzzle!
ReplyDeleteNo a/c here.....yet. Just the ceiling fan yesterday!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, I could not live there in the summer months. Even the temps in the 30C range are a bit much for me.
ReplyDeleteGoing to the pool might have helped you cool down, but I imagine there isn't a whole lot of shade!
Most likely the folks who live there in the summer wonder how people survive a winter in Ontario. Just a matter of what you get used to, and then, the 3 days of summer in Ontario are just worth the long winters.
ReplyDeleteI grew up in Yuma with no AC...just a house water cooler which was pretty much worthless. No AC in cars. No AC, no water coolers, no fans at school. Vacation time you left Yuma at 1am. We did finally get central AC when I was 16. Later I found out I was one of the lucky ones. Many classmates said their parents never got AC until all the kids left home!
