Park Place RV Park
On Friday, Dec. 27th, Christmas is almost just a memory now. We still put our outside lights on, because it is pretty, and the tree lights in the evening. I love that ambience with no other lighting. 😊 I was up by 7 and out the door by 7:30. It was 50F/10C with a bit of a breeze. Bill’s head cold was still lingering so he decided to stay home this morning, and informed Duncan. He was happy that Duncan hopped in his car and went flying anyway. I think that man is hooked!
 |
| Good morning! If this doesn't encourage me to walk, not much will. |
After my
return, I had my tea and took Gibbs out for his walk. Bill had deduced that
going to Walmart in Parker was not a good idea either, so I accepted D & P’s
offer to tag along with them. Our grocery list was growing, day by day, and
there were a number of things we needed to restock. But first! At 9:40, Jess
and Jessie picked me up and we went to the Desert Camel Crafts for class. ♥
 |
| No matter which way I looked, the sky was beautiful. |
 |
| Brighter and brighter |
Jess teaches, as you know, but Jessie helps the shop owner on Fridays, with whatever she needs done. 😊 This morning Georgia had errands so Jessie stepped in to man the store in her absence. Us ladies, 3 of us today, were in the corner learning to make more flowers for greeting cards. It doesn’t matter what we are making, I am just loving the fact that I am getting out there and having fun.
 |
| The path was well lit by the time I got to it. |
Today, my
colour choices were not the best for the background I chose BUT I am proud of
what I made and, even though I felt rushed to finish those last leaves, we were
still out of the shop at 12:30 and on our way home. By no means did Jess rush
us, but we all try to be finished by noon to allow for another class at 1. Bill
was just starting to make his sandwich so I joined him and was ready to catch
my next ride by 1.
 |
| It was a small class but very enjoyable. My 'busy' card on top and the classes creations on bottom. |
Duncan drove and, as always, I love the route. The desert, the mountains, the blue sky, all mesmerize me each and every time. We went our separate ways and met outside the front doors with our carts full of groceries.
 |
| On the road to Parker. They almost look like postcards. 💓 |
One quick stop at
Safeway, across the street, a water car wash at Terrible’s and we were on our
way home. Bill and Gibbs greeted us with smiles but he still sound like the gas
station. (Terrible) ☹ Poor guy.
 |
| While in Walmart, I turned down a FOOD aisle and across from it were these bins for sale. ??? Oddest looking groceries, eh??? |
With the
food items in their proper cupboards, shelves, fridge/freezer I changed into
shorts and sat outside with a cup of tea. Bill tried to sit with me but was
just not feeling up to it. At least, I’m trying to look at a positive, it isn’t
in his chest, or throat and it isn’t a fever. Hopefully tomorrow, he will see
relief. After my tea was done, Gibbs and I went for his walk around the park.
 |
| Gibbs and I saw the sun getting ready to say goodnight. |
Supper
time and we agreed on simple again, but enough to ‘stuff that cold’ again. 😊 Grilled cheese sandwiches and Bill got a nice dish of Black
Cherry ice cream for dessert. I was quite full but may find a Lindor chocolate
from my stocking later on this evening. It was a much nicer day today, reaching
71F/22C but feeling hotter than that with that sunshine! We cleaned up the fry
pan and loaded the dishwasher before settling in for the night.
 |
| Simple and it filled us. Mostly. 😁 |
I hope
you’ve had a nice day too; I know weather back home is on the mild side and
good for traveling right now. My sister, Donna, sent this picture of our
Ontario home. Looks pretty peaceful, doesn’t it?
 |
| Because I have room for a memory photo This is with George and Suzie (& Clemson) at our site in Pilot Knob RV Resort, Winterhaven, Ca. Dec. 27th, 2017 Good night! |
Thank you for stopping by. Thank you also for the wishes for Bill's wellness and condolences. I think Craftyfox may just have talked me into buying more cinnamon rolls!!! Oh my, that is something I'm going to try with my next batch. (they're in the fridge!)
