You Win Some, You Lose Some

Park Place RV Park

On Tuesday, Feb. 17th we woke up once again to what is bound to be another wild, windy day. I know it isn't as bad here as it is elsewhere but it is still pretty gusty! Bill didn't even attempt to go to the field, knowing full well that no one else would be there either. 

Good morning!

Windy but still shorts and tees weather.

It was a quiet morning here, so I decided to strip the bed for the wash. Also, our 2 chair quilts needed to be done. I usually like to hang them on the line behind the clubhouse but with the winds and the dust, they could end up worse. 

Walking back through our neighbours site.
They had to take their toy hauler back to
Phoenix for the 3rd (?) time for repairs.
It's brand new!
Hope the winds didn't cause any issues for them.

Our grounding sheet cannot go in the dryer or in the direct sun, so I brought it home with the other things tumbled dry. I stretched the grounding sheet over the shower bar, after I finished showering (🤭), and let it dry all day.

You might remember this flower design.
I'm still wrestling with it. With a free frame,
I covered the inappropriate message and
asked Bill to trim the bottom to fit.
I still think that I'm going to add more green
to fill in the leaves. Then, maybe I'll be happy with it.
                                      😉😆

I started a new quilling project for the clubhouse, that's all I will say now and Bill did his own thing, as did Gibbs. After my shower, I had no plans to go for a walk with Gibbs, sorry little guy, so we had lunch together. While they dozed, I walked over for Pokeno.

After lunch, it was Pokeno time!
I didn't come home too sad, I hope to win
it back next week!

Linda from Gold Star RV Park joined me as did 6 others. We always have such a good time, laughing a lot, no liquid embellishments required. 😂 Last week, I came home a winner, with a full bucket of pennies. Today, not so much, but it was still fun and not a huge loss. Bill was not much help in the lucky department today.

Renee made progress on the puzzle
today.

I worked on the puzzle with Renee after our game ended at 2:45 and returned home around 4:15. I debated taking Gibbs for this walk too, the winds were really gusting. However, we did go and with the sun shining down on us, it was a pleasant enough walk.

After working on the underwater
'fish' puzzle, I was seeing fish in the sky!
Or is it a helicopter?

For supper, breaded shrimp and fries for Bill and I had the shrimp with butternut squash. The squash was from the freezer but it was pretty good all the same. Keeping fresh vegetables in the fridge, when I'm the only one eating them, can sometimes be a waste of money. 

Dave and Joan's 5th wheel in storage here.
I do really like the picture on the front
from Bayfield, Ontario, Canada

The meal was good, interrupted just once with a distress call to help someone get OUT of their rv. They can tell their own story about that! We cleaned up the dishes and I finished my blog. 

Yum, supper was good!

I will have to find something else to watch tonight, I finished the final episode of Gilmore Girls last night. I'm smiling, really happy smiles. 💕💖 We reached a windy high today of 70F/19C under mostly sunny skies. A pretty good day, all in all.

PS - Black Beauty got a shower today! 😍

Tonight's sky, to the west and east.
Good night!

Thank you for visiting!
