Howdy! Finally, a nice day.



We just enjoyed the morning at home. I made some earrings that match the bracelet I made before. Read some emails and just sat around.



This afternoon we went to a couple of rummage sales. People sure want a lot of money for their junk!! I did buy and Indian peace pipe. Just something different to hang on the wall of our new bedroom.



We picked up AG and Audrey Wilson at their RV in Ehrenberg(?)and had supper at the Sizzler in Blythe. Then on to the races.



It is a quarter mile blacktop track. By the time the races started the wind started to blow and it got so cold. But the race was fun. The little Bandoleros and Legend cars raced. The Bandoleros are driven by kids. The winner of the first heat was only 9 years old. They range in age from 9 to 15 or so. The Legend cars are mostly in the 15 or 16 age range. They really go fast. There was a 15 year old girl diving a stock car. After the last Legend car heat we left. Just to cold to sit there. Where are the hot flashes when you need one???? ha!



It was close to midnight before we got home. It was a very fun evening.



Did you remember to change your clocks? AZ doesn't have savings time so now we are 2 hours earlier than home.



Good night and God Bless
