Digging our Heels in Even Deeper! Bad Hair Days

Park Place RV Park

On Wednesday, Feb. 18th it seemed that the crank was turned a few more notches and the winds were increased again. Bill said it wasn't bad when he and Gibbs went out at 6, 'feels mild', he said. So, I knew we were going to Walmart in Parker first thing, and put my long comfy dress on.

Good morning!

Hmmm, it doesn't feel too mild to me but with my sweater wrapped nicely around me, it was okay. Bill was kind enough to drop me off at the door to the store which I appreciated very much. Today was a drive for Black Beauty, to clean the exhaust filter, plus we needed a few groceries.

Here we go with even more
tempestuous (my word of the week) skies.

We left before 8 and were back before 10. It was a good quick trip. I debated joining Coffee Hour but decided to stay put and do some quilling until lunch. I suggested toasted bacon sandwiches and Bill jumped at the idea. Rosy, air fried the bacon for us. 

The picture above this one,
was taken seconds before it
and looking to the north.
Seems like another world.

That was delicious! Bill had a Quartzsite Desert Flyers meeting in the clubhouse this afternoon so for at least an hour after eating, I stayed home. When the meeting was over, I walked over to work on the puzzle. It almost felt like withdrawal! ha ha, not really.

Whenever we come down this highway,
depending on Bill's speed,
I want to go 'wheeeee!'

I worked away until a few minutes after 4 and walked back home. I finished my project with the exception of using Mod Podge on it for protection. Then I'll share it. For supper, Rosy was hard at it again and air fried our sausage.

Looking out our back window
towards the southeast,
this dust blew in from the parking lot
across from Arco.
One more day of this.

Bill had his in a bun and I had mine on my plate with cauliflower rice as a side. I need to at least pretend I'm doing better with my diet! It all tasted good and we cleaned up the few pots and settled in for the evening. 

The question to Gibbs was:
" have you got Poppy and Goat with you?"

What I didn't see was that he
had 'Boomerang' too!

Last night I watched a movie, The Trials of Cate McCall and it was enjoyable. Tonight, I found an episode of Survivor 45 on live tv that I haven't seen. I know next week we start with Survivor 50 so this is a warm up. 

This is a real challenge but it
is fun at the same time.

The winds never let up at all today, but we had some sunny periods reaching 65F/16C. We have a few cooler days in store before the heat returns and stays. We're loving it here, amidst the dust. 😄 It has been a great day.

Supper was good.
Love that sauerkraut!
Good night!

Thank you for stopping in.
