A fun weekend, followed by Monday, of course...lol



Saturday began with a bike ride in the warm sunshine at 9:30am; we didn't even need jackets! Joel joined us for the trip down by Ma Fajitas to watch the Hank Day parade. Hank is the guy who made the really big bucks buying up all the desert real estate around here. And then re-selling most of it to the snowbirds. Everyone thought he was nuts...I should be so NUTS! The parade is just a small one but a lot of fun with bunches of candy all the old farts (including us) were picking up all over the street...lol. Norman even got a booby hug from one of the crazy Red Hat ladies going by. Well, alrighty, it was Margo...hee-hee.

Then we had a nummy bbq tri-tip steak lunch put on by the Kiwanis of the area and enjoyed the classic cars on display. The ride home was pretty easy, even though it was uphill nearly all the way. I guess our legs are getting stronger.

The rest of the weekend?...Guess it's a blur of fun...I sure don't remember what we did. Norman watched the Nascar race on Sunday. I did grocery shopping and the laundry and sewed some on the quilt. Hmmm...well, some of the weekend was fun!


Oh yeah...we joined Joel last night and went to a country-western concert at one of the RV parks. It was pretty good. Only problem, since it was Sunday night the park agreed to let them do an almost complete gospel show, which we didn't know about. The whole audience seemed to know all the songs except for us three. It would have been fun to sing along, but we didn't know the words to any of the songs.



Jill's folks parked next to us this morning. They were a pleasant surprise. It didn't take them long to get into the Yuma spirit, as this pic shows. And Penny, the neighbor's dog, adopted them right away...


And we got a pretty good picture of the four of us for Jo and Cole...
