Park Place RV Park
On Friday, Dec. 2nd Bill was up first, around 7 with Gibbs. He stayed up because he had a morning plan. 😉 Now that we’re this close to the flying field for Desert Flyers, he wanted to get his routine underway. Gibbs and I went for a walk and funny enough, there were no brakes applied today. Just a whole lot of sniffing. A new place, lots of interesting places to sniff and lift a leg if you’re so inclined. I wasn’t but Mr. Gibbs was.
The sky was so pretty this morning
while I waited for the sun to pop

Oh so many sniffs!
I was walking on even paved roadway
but you could veer off to the left if you wanted
to walk the desert trails too
There, see? The sun popped!
It was me turning him towards home this morning. It was 52F/12C and although the sun hadn’t broke through the clouds, it was a nice morning. When we returned, Bill was almost ready to head out so I kissed him goodbye, wished him a good time and I headed out for my longer walk. It sure is different walking on flat surfaces and since I only wear my Sketchers loafers, nice to not have to worry about a twisted ankle. 😊
I saw a lot of Palo Verde trees out in the desert
but none looking anywhere near as healthy
as these along today's walk are

This is a great station to listen to with a
variety of good traditional Christmas tunes
sung traditionally by country artists 💕
I found a
Sirius Country Christmas station and that was much easier than playing our cd’s.
The music was great as I sang along and got the place vacuumed first. We turn
our coffee table across the end of the island and that is where our 4’ tree
goes.
Let the decorating begin!
Our blankets aren't very festive
but that's what we've got!
It works well and we love how it all comes together in our small space. ♥ I was almost finished by the time Bill pulled into our site. The day wasn’t going to be overly hot because the clouds ruled the sky but it was still very nice at 68F/20C.
Gibbs has gone around and checked all of these adornments
He approves
When we
were done lunch, with dishes in the dishwasher (yay), I left Bill and Gibbs and
walked over to the clubhouse. Time to start that new puzzle! I met Susan, a new
host, and soon I had the pieces all laid out and within the hour, had the
border finished. Woops, except for one piece. It’s in there somewhere and very
typical of me to forget a least one! Susan is interested in helping me so that will be nice.
Our little tree all decked out for the season
I left
the puzzle without one glance back as I knew that could be the clincher for
staying longer. 😊 Back home, Bill and Gibbs were
watching the last of a movie and we all went outside to sit for a while. Because
Gibbs had only been for one walk today, we took a jaunt around the park. For some
reason, our little bum doesn’t walk well with both of us, my thought is that he’s
trying to ‘herd’ us.
This puzzle is going to be fun!
On the
back side of Arizona Sun RV Park, which is right behind us, a couple of
overhanging branches from the ‘community’ lemon and grapefruit trees encouraged
me to bring one of each home. Fresh off the tree, yum, the grapefruit will be
yummy! For supper, Bill grilled sausages and inside I cooked mixed vegetables
and warmed up the leftover rice. It was a good supper and we finished the
cheesecake off too.

We are happy to be able to use our dishwasher again, now that we’re not keeping our water usage to a minimum. We watched Fire Country together while I worked on my blog post. I must say that it looks so pretty in here with all the Christmas lights and decorations. This has been a great day!
Now, I introduce my new little Christmas additions
from Hobby Lobby
Giggles on the left, isn't she cute?
Jolly on the right, I love their smiles.
Good night y'all!
Thank you for stopping by.
