Day 77...Soup night

The Ocotillo cactus are blooming all over.
The blooms at the top are much redder than the picture shows.

This Palo Verde tree is by the park office.   We have 2 by us
but not in full bloom yet.   Many along the side of the roads but mostly as
bushes and not trees.   bright yellow !

Hello,  It was such a nice day today.   About 80 degrees and no wind.  cooled off nice this evening.
 
We went for a golf cart ride but almost didn't make it back home.   Mel had to push the last half block. New batteries next year. 
 
This afternoon we visited friends, Bev and Frank in Quartzsite.   Bev was our neighbor here for a few years.  We got home just in time for the parks "soup night".   This was the last one so we had all kinds of left overs from other nights.  4 kinds of soup,  biscuits, tacos, grilled cheese,  apple crisp,  ice cream,  & wine.   All was so good.
 
Home again and being the cart was charged up we went for another ride.   Stopped at Verona and Cliffs for a while.
 
I think it will be an early bed tonight.
 
About 8 days to go before we go home.   Maybe 10 days...
 
Good night...  God Bless
