Park Place Rv Park
On Monday, Feb. 16th there was a dream still filtering around in my rattled brain when I woke at 6:30. Gibbs was beside me in bed so I knew they'd been up and out already. Didn't hear a thing, just the way I like it. Got my usual face wash, "I love you too, Gibbs".
 |
| Good morning! Tempestuous sky this morning. |
Bill was almost ready to go to the field by the time I came downstairs after washing and dressing. He knew it was going to be windy day so wanted to try for an early flight before that happened. I finished my tea and took Gibbs for a walk around 8:30. It felt chilly so I was happy I chose my fleece jacket.

I prepped my to-go mug and walked over at 9:15 for our pool game. Only 5 of us today, we missed Linda! We finished up at noon and Bette and I tied for the win! I'm not usually anywhere near the top.......3rd is the best I've done this winter, I think. We had fun, as usual, and parted ways for lunch.
At the Ice Cream Social yesterday,
I had chosen this puzzle.
It was nice that a few others sorted the
border and flipped the pieces!
I had some cabbage stew for lunch and put the rest in the freezer. It's probably enough for 3 or 4 more meals. Bill didn't get home until 1 so made himself a sandwich. I went to the clubhouse for a little over an hour and worked on the next puzzle. A lot of blue in this water scene so it should be a challenge.😉
 |
| I managed to get the border, except for one piece, finished and start on the inside. This will be a fun one! |
I was back home at a bit before 3 waiting for guests to arrive for Happy Hour. Tom, Deb, Ken and Kim were very obliging, sitting under our canopy with the wind flapping the 2 sides Bill had put in place. When it got uncomfortable, we moved out to the patio mat. Not as warm but it was nicer.
 |
| At Happy Hour, we started under the canopy but the sides flapping were annoying. Look at that dusty mess out in the desert not far at all from the park. |
It is never a dull moment when we are all together and we enjoy the company. My lime margarita was yummy but had to drink it slowly. They are 12.5% alcohol, so I might 'halving' my alottment. Tasty but a bit deadly. Funny because we were all just talking about alcohol and its effects on us. LOL
 |
| Gibbs' ears tell the wind story. He's so good at H.H. |

We had chicken thighs, mashed potatoes and mixed veggies for supper. I needed a good meal tonight. It has been a great day. Fun with friends throughout the whole day so we are grateful. This lifestyle is being very kind to us.
 |
| A Sunday meal on a Monday. Delicious! |
We reached a very windy high of 72F/20C and before we came in for the night, Bill dropped the canopy down to its lowest level to protect it from the gusts. So far, the highest of 14.5 mph recorded here but a chance of 23 mph before the day is done. We believe it is the result of storms in certain areas of California.
 |
| When we moved out to the patio, Bill lowered the sides and before we came inside, tucked the chairs underneath. It is all safe now. Good night! |
I hope everyone remains safe.
Thank you for your visit.
