"The Eagle has Landed"....

Er, rather the RV has arrived on the lot in Yuma. We're pretty well set-up, but slowing down tremendously. It's HOT! 94 in the shade and 81 in the RV with both air-conditioners going.
Few more things to do...and finding more that we forgot to bring. Norman brought the other satellite receiver, but neglected to grab the remotes. So guess what he's doing in this pic?
YEP, trying to get a remote a dealer/friend here in Yuma gave him programed for our receiver...lol. He'll get it done, but it might take another beer...Sorry kids, if you spend the night in the house, you'll have to watch TV from our bed...lol.

Drat Congress...Tea Party...US government...whatever!! We weren't supposed to arrive here for at least another week, but the next few places we wanted to see..."closed". After a bit of discussion, we took the shortest route here.

We stayed in the desert last night...hot, but loved the 'big desert night sky'. I stole this image, but
all night long, whenever I woke, I placed my pillow on the nightstand and looked out the window at this type of site. Our Milky Way is so wondrous!!

That's it for now...first 'happy hour' of the season is coming up. I might think up a nibble to bring. Many of our neighbors haven't arrived yet, so there won't be many.

BTW...the desert soil is really fertile...the weeds in everyone's yard are as 'high as an elephant's eye'. Oh well, most of them hire Jesus and his crew to clean the yards...And we'll be hiring Alberto and his crew to wash and wax the RV before the day is over.
