Park Place RV Park
On Tuesday, Mar. 17th, St. Patrick's Day arrived in the same, if not stronger heat, than the previous day. Today's forecasted high was 97F/33C after a pleasant 61F/15C overnight. I hopped out of bed around 7 and right into the shower.
Bill was in no hurry to go to the field, his flying days are over - for now. Yes, FG, we had a plane crash. The following picture may be hard to look at, but think of how the pilot feels. 😔

I had my tea and Bill did leave our site for a few reasons this morning. One was to go with a few club members to City Hall to donate a check for the Easter Egg Hunt.

Gibbs and I admired the
red and white oleanders
on our morning walk
The other thing he did was get a haircut. Yes, he was getting a bit scruffy around the ears and he doesn't like that at all. He has a barber in town that does a good job so went and stood in line before returning home with lowered ears. 🤭

Not much different from
yesterday....but a few pieces
fell into place.
Gibbs and I went for our walk, cutting through at the dog park this time. I think he was happy to cut it short too. Back home, I dusted the living room table tops, got the dust mop and dirt Devil vac out and made a clean 'sweep'.

The place was packed!
We were place a table in the
corner near the stage.
I worked on the puzzle with very little success and came home for lunch with Bill. After a sandwich, I brushed Gibbs' teeth. He doesn't exactly 'love' it, but he likes the taste of his toothpaste so allows me to put my finger and his mouth. 😉🐕

| The drinks and pizza were good, as usual. |
I had to buy pennies from Stephanie today in order to play Pokeno and then with the help of a 'Penny Fairy' was able to carry on. I sure wasn't winning! Oh well, we had a lot of fun regardless of the losses on my card. Maybe I'll go back to my original one for my last games on Tuesday.
Back at home, Gayle, John and their friends, Mary and Rick joined us at the Suite. Mainly to meet Gibbs. Mary is a real dog lover and no doubt, fell in love with our little mutt. This is the first time we've seen my sister since the fall as they spend the winter in Mexico.

The entertainment was very good
We went to Silly Al's and it was a lot of fun with good food too. The 2-person band (a couple) played well and I thought of my daughter and son-in-law. This is what they should be doing! ❤️ We ate, laughed, and even danced a bit before heading out.

| I'm glad we were able to get together once more. |
The place was packed but we got a table for 6 easy enough. My gluten-free meatlover's pizza was very good and although Bill had to wait toooo long for his, it was very good too.

We said our goodbyes, nice meeting you's and hugs to all before returning to the park.

The sky was pretty when
we came out of the restaurant.
We missed the early episodes of our shows so watched them at 8 MST. This has been a great day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Anne-Marie made everyone these
little shamrocks.
💗💚
Good night!
Thank you for your visit.






Aww so sad about Bill's plane!
ReplyDeleteThank you. He loved flying that one this season.
DeleteAlways nice to go to dinner with family and their friends and of course Gibbs was a Star.
ReplyDeleteHe is such a little character with such a personality. Sorry that Bills plane wiped out. At least it was late in the AZ. season.

Thank you, it was really nice to get together and meet their friends.
DeleteShort lived plane, just one season.
Sorry to see Bill's crashed plane...:( It must have been great to see Gayle and John again and It sounds like a fun evening with them and their friends. Tell Ann Marie, pretty shamrocks. The puzzle is starting to look like the picture...😊
ReplyDeleteThank you Deb. It was a nice time with sis.
DeleteI will pass that on to Anne Marie for you. I agree about the puzzle!
I'm pretty sure I heard Bill say some bad words when the plane hit the ground!! LOL. So very sorry ... it was a beauty!!! The puzzle is coming along nicely.
ReplyDeleteThank you Nancy. Yes, Bill loved flying that plane too!
DeleteLove the wee shamrocks!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to get a visit with your sister, BIL, and their friends.
Sorry about the plane, can it be rebuilt?
Thank you. No, the plane is too damaged in the areas that are necessary. He'll keep the wings.
DeleteFun times with family and friends. I love the shamrocks.
ReplyDeleteThey're cute, aren't they?
DeleteI had fun making the shamrocks....Deb ill make you one for next year. :)
ReplyDeleteLove this. 💕
DeleteNice to get a visit in with family and their friends. Ouch Bill's plane does not look good. Is it fixable?
