Day 63...Elvis

 

Friday, Feb. 27

 

        

Sue, Elvis, Diane

House lights weren't up so picture pretty dark.

                                         Danny Vernon as Elvis.  He is from Tacoma WA

Hello,
I got my Elvis fix tonight.   Danny Vernon performed at the park where A.G. & Audrey are staying.
Ehrenburg is near the CA border.   He had a good voice but not much "wiggle".  His wife sang and danced in the background and was really good.    The park did such a great job with the decorations.  They served Champaign, wine, cookies, cupcakes, candy.  (some baked by Audrey).  Tables were nicely decorated too with candles, balloons, chips, pretzels...   Thanks to the Wilsons for inviting us.
Mel even went.   Sue and I enjoyed it all.  I think Mel did too.

We got a big pile of mail today...thanks Jen.   Maybe I should say,   woopie,  more bills.  A few anyway.

We have rain and wind warnings for the weekend.   We don't have any plans for tomorrow but Sunday we go to Blythe for my Tablet lesson and groceries.   I hope the weather doesn't get to bad.
Snow coming in northern AZ.    Forecasted high temps in the high 50's here.

I am so close to being out of time for my WiFi.   I might not be writing here for a couple of days.  I get my time back on Tuesday.   You can always Text me.

Good night hugs,  God Bless

Day 62...Stayed home...

      ...most of the day.

Hello all,
It was pretty cool this morning but was nice this afternoon.

We vacuumed all over then mostly nothing else.   Sue and Woody came for a nice visit.

I cooked a Cornish Hen for supper.   We haven't had one for many years.   Turned out pretty good.  We had a bowl of soup with it.

This evening we went to the Gospel Jam in Brenda park.   Pepe ended the show with "The lighthouse" & "Lets All Go Down to The River".   Love those songs by Pepe.

Bed time again.    Elvis tomorrow.   :-)

  God Bless & Good night hugs

PS..  Gretchen is home and doing good.
We sent her flowers but they never got to her before she left.   The flower shop is going to check on it tomorrow.

Day 61..soup day

Hello,
Today was a good day.    Gretchen's surgery went well.   Much  shorter time then they thought.  It is hard for me to imagine that the Dr's were inside her heart today but she can go home tomorrow.  Thanks for your prayers,

I made a big kettle of veggie soup today.   Mel loves soup.   I think he could eat it for every meal plus a bedtime snack...  Plus our Wed. night soup night at the club house was creamy veggie soup.
It was good except for the broccoli that was in it.

It has been pretty cold here so soup tastes pretty good.  It was "only" 70 today.   ;-)

I am almost out of time again on my aircard so I might not be online much until the 2ed.

By the way,   we are going to see Elvis Tribute Artist Friday night.    I hope he is good.

Good night hugs and God Bless

Day 60...Cherry pie, taco's, Gospel jam

Tuesday, Feb. 24

 

I just found this picture of Molly sleeping in the kitchen chair. 

She isn't stuck.  She just found a place to hold her head.

Silly little girl....

 

 

Good evening,

 

The ladies in our park met for lunch at the Black rock café.  They had a buffet of breads, salads, cold cuts and chicken pieces.  I think there was more than 60 there.   Some went threw the desert on their ATV's and met us at the restaurant.   The café is closing for the season this weekend.  Sorry to say but we won't miss it.

 

A while ago I bought a cheap (50 cents) straw hat to wear to the Phoenix race.  It is very plain so decided to make a beaded head ban.   I worked on that this afternoon.   Not to sure what I am doing but trying.   I will get a picture when I am done.

 

I baked a cherry pie.   It sure took a long time in the oven.  For some reason the crust didn't want to brown.   We will eat some tomorrow.

 

We met AG & Audrey for Taco's then on to the Gospel jam.    Only about half the band members there tonight.   Some have left for home but not sure why others were gone.   It was still good.

 

It was very cool today.  Only in the 60's and VERY windy.  I guess it will stay below normal temps for several days.  I don't like it.

 

Thinking of Gretchen all day. Tomorrow is her surgery.  Could be 10 to 12 hrs.   Continued prayers for her.

 

Good night hugs and God Bless

 

 



Day 59...Pizza

Our new lawn ornaments...  We have no more room unless

I start putting things on the side.  Maybe.....

 

 

Hello,

It was a pretty quiet day.   We didn't so much of anything until 3:30.   I took a shower and then tried to take a nap but the phone rang twice so gave up on that idea.

 

Later Sue, Woody, Verona, Cliff, & Mel and I went to Silly Al's pizza  .   Oh so good.

 

Tonight I played darts.   Scores ok but nothing big deal.   We won 2 of the 4.

 

Tomorrow better be house cleaning... but I bet there will be something else to do.

 

Good night and God Bless.

 

Prayers for Gretchen

 

Hugs.

 

 

 

 



Day 58...Nascar racing & Mardi gras

Mardi gras parade

 

 

Good evening,

 

Been a busy day.    Breakfast at the club house this morning then on to church.    We hurried home as the big race was starting.   Missed the pre race but that's ok.  So good to have the races again.

My driver came in 2nd. 

 

I kept busy during the race.    I made goulash for lunch.  I washed a couple loads of cloths, and did dishes.  I did enjoy the race.  They went 200 mph.  Unreal.

 

At 4:00 we enjoyed the Mardi gras parade .   They went all around the outside of our park.   They wants dogs to enter next year so we will have to think about an outfit for Molly.  And see if I can walk that far.

 

Tonight I put on lots of beads and we went to the dance.   Just a sock hop.   but fun.

 

It is pretty cold here today. (ha)   never got above 70.  Suppose to stay cooler for the next few days.

 

I am very tired...  so better get to bed.

 

Good night,  God bless

Hugs

 

PS..  My niece got home from the hospital.   So glad.   Gretchens very long surgery is scheduled for Wed.  Keep her in your prayers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Day 57...Black Powder and Chili

                                                     Black Powder gun competition.  


Hi everyone...
We went to Bouce this morning and watched the shooting competition.   I think most of them was yesterday but was fun to see the few today.   Several venders but I was a good girl and didn't buy much. 

We got home just in time for the Chili cookoff.    Mel didn't enter this year.   It was won the last 3 years by the same person.   Guess they had more friends here than the other entries.

Home the rest of the day.    

See you in Church
Hugs

Day 56...Shopping and eating

 

 

 

 

 

  Seen this cloud last summer. I can't remember where.  Doesn't it look angry?   Notice the rainbow.

*********************************************

Hello,
The day started pretty quiet.   We decided to make another trip to Quartzsite.   Sue and Woody went along.   Sue and I went to a strip of stores while the guys went another way.    What used to be a nice area with lots of things to look at but this year not much left.   Just mostly stuff few would want.
I did enjoy another bead shop but poor Sue wasn't interested and waited outside.  I bought some beads to put a necklace together.   I hope I can make it work.  I still need certain seed beads but didn't have the size along.  Guess that means another trip, right?  ;-)

We had a small lunch of pork eggrolls and an ice cream cone.  They served the best dip for the egg roles.  Kind of a sweet & sour sauce.  Home from there.

Supper time was the cod at Dos Amigos.   Verona & Cliff and 2 other friends from this park joined us.  We had a nice visit & good eating.

Tomorrow we are going to a Black Powder Renaissance in Bouce.  

Good night and God Bless
Hugs

Day 55...Race day

Hello,

After my morning shower we went over to Witter's and had some crab salad on crackers.  So good.

Then a long ride on the golf cart.   We just rode out in the desert past the golf course.  Right by the mountain behind our park.   I hope we do this more often. 

 

 

We were home the rest of the day.   I baked a loaf of bread.   Grilled chicken wings for supper.

 

Then the beginning of race season.   Witters joined us to watch the Nascar twin race.   These 2 races sets the line up for the Daytona 500.   Sunday is the 500.   Can't wait.

 

I think I will be in bed before midnight tonight.    I guess racing wore me out.   haha..

 

Temp was 82 this afternoon.   Now at 10:20 it is still 70 degrees.   Nice !

 

Good night & God Bless

Hugs

Day 54..Molly went to beauty parler.

Hello,

Got Molly to the groomer this morning.   We had and hour and a half to look around while Molly got a bath and hair cut.    She looks so cute.   Nice and white.   But in this gravel she won't stay white long.

We looked around a bit.   Mostly in the junkier part of Quartzsite.   We were looking for a gold miners  pan but decided Mel's wheel barrow scene didn't really require one as there was no water there.  I did find "a thing" (not sure what it is) but I am going to try to make a necklace out of it.
I think it came from something electrical.
I got some stamps at the post office.   Then went to the donut shop.  The rolls we picked wasn't as good as they usually are there.
Phone call saying Molly is done.   So went to get her.   Then stopped at the grocery store and got milk and cereal.   Home again.

I was very tired and considered a nap but never got there.    I washed 2 loads of cloths instead.

Supper at the clubhouse.   They called it a Ship Wreck.   It was really good.   Basically like a taco without the shell or meat.  white rice,  Mexican rice, kind of a beans, lettuce, cheese, black olives, sour cream, salsa.   It filled a plate and piled high.  

After supper Sue and I went to Verona's for a game of dominos.   More fun than playing with 8 or 9 people like we have been doing.

Bed time...     I hope to get some pictures taken tomorrow.

Good night and God Bless.

Hugs.

Day 53...Bead shopping

Hi there,

Another fun day.   Temps about 77.    This morning our park held a Senior Olympics.   We didn't enter any games but was fun to watch.   Maybe next year I will try it.  Sue and Woody entered a couple.   We had ice cream after the games.

Outside they had a shot put(?) ...behind measured lines they threw rocks
discus toss...Threw Frisbees threw 2 hula hoops
Inside was cross country skies,  on the cement floor
Equestrian... rode office chairs, sitting backwards on it.   The chair had a cardboard horse head on it.
relay race...carried a cotton ball on a spoon and handed off on the other end of floor.
Synchronized swimming,  behind a blue tarp
I can't think of a couple more.   It was funny !
I wasn't in a very good seat to take pictures but here is a few.

After lunch I went to Gem World and got my bead fix.     I didn't buy near as much as I did last year but it was fun seeing what was available.   Never did find one kind of bead I wanted.  Oh well....

After a taco supper we enjoyed the Gospel jam in Desert Gold.

That was the day.   So Good night
God Bless
Hugs

Day 52...Water leak

Hi everyone,

Late last night Molly wanted to go out.   I don't tie her but I watch her and call her back when she heads to far from the house.   Last night she went to the side of the house and out of sight.   When I went out there and around the corner all I could see was Molly standing there and wondering what was happening.   A hose broke that went to the water filters and water was spraying all over. Mel got his boots on and had to go out & shut the water off.

Today we went to Quartzsite and got a new hose.  Sue & Elwood went along as they needed new filters.  We had an ice cream cone and came home.

Verona and Cliff invited us over for supper.   What a spread they had.   Chicken on the grill with pineapple and cheese, mandarin orange salad, beans, potato salad, wine.   She offered brownies and ice cream but we were to full to eat any.   Maybe she will offer it again tomorrow.   :-)  Everything was sooooo good.

Darts tonight.    I didn't hit tonight.   I think my highest was in the 30's.  My team did win 2 of the 4 but it sure wasn't because of my help.

Our "Spring Fling" this year is going to be "Senior Olympics".  Not sure what that all is but will find out tomorrow.

Good night & God Bless
Hugs

Day 51...Trip to Yuma

Sue and I by a beautiful Bougainvillea(?) bush in Yuma

 

 

Good evening,

 

We had a fun day in Yuma.   Sue, Woody, Mel and I left this morning at 9:30.   I was hoping to find the Date place along the way but either we missed it or it wasn't open.   I wanted a date shake and some fresh dates so bad but didn't happen.

 

We walked the AZ Market place for over 3 hrs.   So many different things to see and buy.   I sure got my walking in today.  I am again feeling so Blessed to be able to walk painless.   I got a big turtle to go with the rest of my turtle family.  (picture later)

 

Later we met good friends Pat & Leroy at Golden Coral.   We first met Pat & Leroy the first year we came to AZ.   They were our neighbors in AZ City.   They used to live in MN but now live full time in their motor home.  6 months here and 6 months near their family in MN.

 

We got back home about 8.   

 

Cliff and Verona took care of Molly.   Thank you so much guys.    Molly was looking out the window when we pulled up to the house.

 

Good night and God Bless

 

Hugs.

Day 50...Happy Valentines Day

Sue & Woody on the dance floor.

 

Hello,

It has been another busy day.   Up early to check out some rummage sales.  I found a couple of things. A cute flower pot and a pair of capris.   Back to our park for cinnamon rolls and a craft show.

Cheese burgers were made in the club house for lunch.

 

Got home in time to watch the High school High Kick  on the computer.  Tom's step daughter,  Gretchen's daughter, Skylar, is caption of her team in Austin.  The team didn't place but Skylar got on the All State team.   I haven't been able to see them dance before so it was fun to see.  It was at Target Center in the cities.

 

We had a supper of left overs then got ready for the Valentine dance at the club house.  Even live music.  We had lots of fun.   Home by 10:30.    Pretty late for us seniors. ha..

 

I made a pineapple and angle food cake for the snake to take.   As always so much food brought in.

 

We are going to Yuma tomorrow so I maybe won't write.  Depends on how late we get home.

 

Good night and God Bless

Hugs

Day 49...Fish supper

Mel's wheelbarrow with gold in it.

He is still working on it.  Can you see the gold in there?

The cord is to charge the golf cart.  I should have

moved it for the picture.

Turtles all over the place... 

 

 

Hi there,

 

We took Molly for a walk in the desert this morning. She loves being able to run without a leash.

Stopped for a visit with Sue and Woody on the way back home.

 

We had some lunch, meat loaf sandwiches, and then went to Quartzsite.  Sue went along.   We just looked around.  I found a few nice beads.   Sue got a necklace with a butterfly on it.   Mel got a snake for his gold mine.

 

Home for a short time and then went to the fish feed at Dos Amigo's.

 

I didn't go to darts tonight.   I have been sneezing and blowing my nose all day.  Alergy type feeling.   And lots of walking so I am really tired tonight.

 

Tomorrow is another big day.   Craft shows and rummage sales.   A quilt show too.

 

Stay warm...

Good night,  God Bless

Hugs.

Day 48...Nice day

                               Thursday,  Feb 12

Good evening,

Thinking of my niece today with her surgery.   Her bowels were attached to some mess from a previous surgery causing a bowel obstruction.  I guess the surgery went well.   Thanks for the prayers for her.

Gretchen  has an Ablasion scheduled .  Prayers for her too.   She has been in a lot of pain.

I baked a loaf of bread this morning. (frozen dough)   We shouldn't have never started that bread.  Habit forming.   Washed the bedspread at the park laundromat and hung out on the line. I was going to wash a big rug until I realized the backing was coming off.   I didn't want to get that all in a machine. 

Made a meatloaf for supper.   Have enough left over to have for lunch tomorrow.

Gospel Jam at Brenda park tonight was super good.   There were some new singers and they were good.

We got our mail from home today.  Thanks Jen.    Always fun to get mail.

I played on my new Tablet but just can't figure it out.  I guess I will have to read the directions, eh?

Bed time...
Good night and God Bless
Hugs

Day 47...windy day

                                      Wed. Feb 11...



Hi,

Not much happening today.   I did some laundry.   I got a new blanket for the bed so put clean sheets on and the new blankie.    I hope it is warm.

We went to Quartzsite for a few groceries.  Domino's tonight.   That's about it.

It was cooler and windy today.   Didn't go outside much.

We have a tree in front of out house that needed trimming.   It was a sight..   The guy finally came to trim it up and really made a mess of it.   Only took him 3 days to cut branches and clean up the mess.
Now we only have half a tree.   Glad he won't ever trim trees at home.

Good night and God Bless
Hugs.

PS... Had a surprise phone call tonight.   Never figured out if I called her or if she called me.   I guess it was an oops.   It was fun though.

Day 46...Shopping & presents

 

Tuesday, Feb. 10

 

 

                                          Trees are in bloom in CA.    I turned the picture but they
                                           still went sideways on here.

It was a great day.   Shopping (ALONE) in Blythe.   Just in K Mart.   I bought some shorts and a new blanket for our bed.   Just was nice to look around without having to hurry.   Mel was just a phone call away. 

We stopped in Quartzsite and looked a bit.  Mel found some Bolo tie stones.  Hurried home from there to meet the Wilson's and their friends and the Prigges at Dos Amigo's for Taco's.   We ate outside on their patio.   Nice visit.

Then to the Gospel Jam at Desert Gold.   Full house and full band.   There was many new songs that I didn't know.  Sooo pretty.   One sang "Go Rest High on That Mountain".   I love that song.

Mel got me a Valentine gift.  I got a Tablet. Nice, eh?    I hope I can figure out how to use it.  Verizon gives lessons so I hope to go for that.

I hear the weather at home isn't the best.   Sleet and cold.   Everyone stay safe.

Good night & God Bless
Hugs

Day 45...Hot day

Hello,

Wew...it was warm today.   83 is all but it seemed hotter then usual.   No,  I am not complaining.

We only left the house to go to the post office until this evening.   We sat on the deck most of the time.   I got bills paid and read computer news.  

Tonight was darts..   I hit an 81 and a couple of 50's but the rest was lower.   My team won 3 out of 4.
Mel didn't play.   He just watched.

9:00 and it is still 73 degrees.  I hope it is nice there too.

Good night & God Bless
Hugs..

Days 43 & 44...Fun races

 

Sunday Feb 8

 

Darts... I am sitting.  (in pink, next to the red)

Mel waiting his turn..  Our neighbor shooting

 

Hello,

 

We play darts on Mondays and Fridays.   Mel isn't to crazy about it but he goes sometimes.

 

It was a good weekend.   Witters and us got to Bouce about 10.   We looked for rummage sales that I thought was happening there but didn't see any.   Prigge's met us and we all went to a spot to watch the desert race.  Parker 425.   the cars sure can raise the dust.

 

 

 

                                           Parker 425...You can find details on line.  Each lap is over

                                           100 miles.  We hope next year to find a different spot to watch.

                                           Someplace where we can see longer stretches.

 

We had lunch in Bouce after the race and home again about 3.  But not for long.

 

We got company for a while.   Alice and Kermit (from northern MN) stopped over for a while.  They just got back from a short cruse so they told us all about it.  I hope we can do that someday.

 

4:30 we left again.   Picked up Witters and headed for Blythe, CA.  First stop was the Verizon store to get my new wifi fixed.   It wasn't broke.  It just hadn't been added to my account.  Geepers.   I didn't know that wasn't done when I got it.   Not it works great.   They offered me a great deal on a tablet but not sure if I want one.

 

We had supper at Popeyes and then on to the race track at the fair grounds.  The first half was pretty boring but got good at the second half.     Got home about 11.  The moon was so big and bright.  Did you see it?  

 

This morning was French toast breakfast at the club house.   After church we had a sandwich at the Buckaroo sandwich shop.  Music jam this afternoon was pretty light.   Not many band members or singers today.

 

We had chicken on the grill for supper.   I baked a loaf of bread for tomorrow. And then we went for a golf cart ride around the park stopping at Witters for a while. 

 

It was so nice out again today.   82 degrees and not a hint of a wind.    

 

Tomorrow should be a little quieter.   I hope anyway.

 

Good night and God Bless

Hugs

 

 



Day 42...Old WiFi

Hello...

I worked most of the afternoon trying to get my new Hot Spot (wifi) to work.  I gave up when it was time for supper.

We joined Verona & Cliff for the Friday night fish supper at Dos Amigos.  Love that cod.  Back home in time to go to darts.   Didn't hit to big tonight.   My team only won 1 of 4.   Mels team got 3 of 4.   My high was only 60.  Lots of them lower. ( I still think we won 2 but score keeper wrote 1 )

After darts I worked on the Wifi again.   It would connect but limited.   I couldn't open anything.   So I took the battery out and looked for the sim card.   There isn't any.   No wonder it won't work.  Tried putting the old one in but couldn't make that work either.   It is suppose to come preloaded.  I guess it means back to the Verizon store.   I put my old one together again and now using that one.  Still can't see if it is on or off but I can figure it out.

I might not write tomorrow as we are going to races all day.   Desert race starts in the morning and small track race in Blythe at night.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Hugs and God's Blessings.

Day 41...New Wifi

 

Thursday Feb 5, 2015

 

 

                                                    My new pet.


Hello
Another beautiful day and evening.   80 I think but didn't really look at the thermometer.

Pretty quiet morning.   After sleeping late and breakfast I was on the computer. 

After lunch we went for a golf cart ride around the park.   Visited Verona and Cliff for a while.

Sue finally went to the Dr and found sinus infection.   She hasn't felt good since they got here.
I hope the meds help her.   She did have us for supper.   Pulled pork sandwiches.   sure was good.
I couldn't stay though as I had to be home when UPS came.

UPS finally came so now I have my new Wifi.   I will hook it up tomorrow.  At least I hope I can make it work.  

I decided to go to Bingo tonight instead of the Jam.    I was close on several games but not close enough.   I can't be so lucky twice.   Sat with Verona and our old neighbor, Bev.  It was fun.  I did miss the Jam but now I got Bingo out of my mind.  Mel stayed home with Molly.

That's about it.

Stay warm.   Good night & God Bless
Hugs

Day 40...soup, soup and more soup

Howdy,

What a beautiful day.   close to 80.  It is suppose to be this nice for the next few days.

We made ham and bean soup today.   Turned out pretty good.   Thanks to the Wilsons for the ham bone and the Speirs for the ham.   I made a loaf of bread to go with it.

The clubhouse soup night tonight was noodle soup so we had our fill of soup today.

Mel got the new rope lights up around the deck.   Looks pretty again.

Not much else today.    Tomorrow I need to make a decision about going to bingo or the gospel jam in Brenda park.   What would you do?

Good night and God Bless

Hugs

Day 39...shopping, visit, taco's. Jam

Tuesday, Feb. 3, 2015

                                          Beautiful sunset............Neat area for Molly to run.

Hello everyone,

I have so many friends and family who need healing prayers...  G, T, T, D, D, S, & A.

We had a full busy day.    On the way to Blythe, CA  we stopped at a neat area to let Molly run around.  I found some pretty rocks to add to my garden and also a dried cactus piece.  Then on to Blythe.

We exchanged the lights for the deck to some that worked together.   Went to Verizon to see what's wrong with my Wifi.   It isn't working so I have to call someone to order a new one.  I wonder how much red tape that will need.  We had a delicious lunch at the Sizzler.  Oh so good.  The grocery store was next to get a few things then headed home.

We stopped in Ehrenburg to visit the Wilsons.  It was so nice to finally sit and talk with them.

Home for a few min.  Put the groceries away and left for Taco night at Dos Amigos.  Wilson's and Priggie's  joined us.   (love them taco's)   We went straight to the Gospel Jam at Desert Gold.

This Jam just keep getting better and better.  Lots of harmony tonight.  There were 28 in the band.  Most band members sang solo's along with several who sang but don't play and instrument.    

Happy Anniversary to Verona and Cliff.   Sorry I forgot.

Good night and God Bless
Hugs

Day 38...Laundry

Hello

Another nice day.   about 70.

Mostly did laundry all afternoon.   

Mel took the old lights down from the deck with plans to put the new ones up.  The old ones were half not working.   But the new ones weren't connectable.   shucks.    Going back to the store tomorrow.  We used to have lights all around the deck but now only one side has a light string.

I made shrimp spaghetti for supper.  It was good with enough left over for lunch tomorrow.

Tonight was darts.   Mel decided to stay home.    I got a high score of 105.  But we only won 1 game.

.Boy am I tired tonight
Good night God Bles
Hugs

Day 37...Wifi problems

What a beautiful weather day.   I feel bad saying that with all the snow at home.    I hope everyone is safe.  We had blue skies and about 70 degrees.

After church we just came home.    I wasn't able to get on line for some reason so didn't get to read my computer messages.    We both ended up taking a nap.

Music jam at our park was so good today.   Had a couple of new comers.  One on a fiddle and one a guitar.   Both were really good.   The base player was so good too.   Others were regulars.
Sat with Verona & Cliff and Betty & Roger.   Sue and Woody weren't feeling well.  Sue is having sinus problems.

The park was pretty quiet after the ball game started.   We even watched it.   We aren't football fans so had no favorites.   It was quit an ending though.   I didn't think half time was all that great and sure didn't last very long.

We had steaks for supper.   They were just cheap steaks but sure was good.  So tender.

I tried to get on line for hours and it just wouldn't work.    I finally got on but said it was limited so I still couldn't do anything.   I did all kinds of things and FINALLY got it to work.  But it was 10:00 already.

Watched a Star Trek movie I hadn't seen before.   Enjoyed it and now I better close.

Take care & God Bless
Hugs 

Day 36...Movie and dance

....Saturday....

 

 

Pretty cool, eh? 

We live in open range area and these cattle were on the road

as we were going home.

***********************************

 

Hello everyone,

 

 

Believe it or not we went to a movie in Parker.   American Sniper.   Mel never wants to go to a movie so when he suggested going I said sure.   Verona & Cliff went with us.   We went early enough to get tickets ahead of time but the theater wasn't open.    We went to lunch and then back to the theater.

It sure was a good show.  

 

We got some groceries and went home.

 

As you see in the pictures we got stopped by the cattle in the road.    I am always hopping to see some kind of critters so was excited.

 

Home long enough to have a sandwich and get ready for the sock hop.   Many came in costume so was so cute.  It was Hippie night.   A couple sang to Islands in the Stream...Kenny Rogers & Dolly Parton.     My famous cell phone camera doesn't take good pictures in the dark but this is what I got.

 

Home again..   Molly was so glad to see us.    Poor baby was home alone all day.

 

I hope everyone enjoys the Super Bowl.   Not sure if we will watch or not.    Probably the commercials and half time.  I don't even know who to cheer for.    Any ideas?

 

Good night.    See you in church !
