We drove into Yuma today to again look for a small wireless printer for the RV. We went to Target to look and found a very nice HP wireless that we liked. We have purposely not looked at HP's as the ink cartridges are expensive to replace compared to some of the other brands. We talked to a young guy who worked there that seemed to be very knowledgeable and he highly recommended the HP over some of the others. When we checked the price of replacement cartridges they were pretty much the same price and the other brands and much cheaper than the HP we have at home. We also liked this printer because it had a flat bed copier and a scanner so we went ahead and bought it as we felt it was small enough for the RV.

We then stopped at Best Buy and found the price of the HP printer there was the same price we paid at Target but the replacement cartridges were a few dollars higher than Target. While we were there I looked at the small netbook computers as I dropped mine yesterday and it no longer will boot up. I quickly decided I would not be replacing it as they were very expensive. Taylor and Kyle bought me an Ipad for Christmas and I treated myself to a wireless keyboard to hook up with it so when I got home I found that using the Ipad was even much easier than my old netbook. So I have decided I do not really need a new PC.

When we left Best Buy, we stopped to eat a the Pita Pit. We had not been there before so weren't sure what to order. The place was packed with people so we assumed it was a decent place to eat.  I talked to a lady in front of us and she gave us some great information about some of the pita combinations she liked. I ended up getting Souvlaki Chicken, which was Mediterranean seasoned chicken. After choosing the meat, it's kinda like a Subway Shop as then you choose all the items you want on it, however they had some very unusual toppings. I had roasted red peppers as one of the toppings and something I'd never heard of, which was Tzatziki Sauce. This is basically a cucumber sauce but was  very good. By the time it was all put together it was huge. Larry had a Gyro which he said was good but he basically didn't get enough sauce and he though it was a little bland. My pita was very good but I think it's something I would only want occassionally which is good because it was rather expensive.

We came home and I sat outside in the sun for awhile. Today was rather cool, in the mid 60's and the wind was pretty strong, which made it feel cooler. While setting outside, David, our next door neighbor last year, came by and talked for awhile.  He is not my favorite person but his wife Cynthia has become a good friend as we have corresponded via email all year. She is a real sweetheart and I have no idea what she ever saw in David but each to their own.

I came in for awhile and then Wanda, next door came over to visit. She said she wanted to go to Walmart to pick up some groceries but Dan(her husband) took off to see a friend here in the resort so she didn't go. I told her I had a list of groceries we needed so if she wanted to go I'd go with her.  We drove down to Walmart and I told her to just meet me at the front where we came in when she was finished. I ran into her several times when I was shopping and she told me the last time she was almost finished but wanted to look quickly for some shorts. I told her to take her time and then I finished my shopping and checked out and went to the front to wait.  I waited for about 30 minutes and started to worry that maybe Wanda was at the other door. I walked down two times in the next 15 minutes and still did not see her. I then walked over to the women's clothing and could not see her there. I finally called Larry to ask him if he had seen Dan and found that Dan was at our RV having drinks with Larry. I asked if by chance Wanda had called him and he said she did not have the cell phone. Now I was really getting worried as I still had not seen her. I walked out to the car but she was not there so I threw my groceries in the car and went back inside. I walked around for awhile and finally saw her in the checkout line. I was so relieved and told her I'd been worried. She apologized and said she had spent time trying on shorts and didn't realize she was gone so long. We laughed about it but I told her that I had called home. She said Dan would probably chew her out for taking so long. When I came in with my groceries, Dan was still here, so I told him not to say one word to Wanda for taking too much time.  Oh well, I was just glad we ended up finding each other as Walmart was full of people tonight. 

Larry worked on setting up the printer but still didn't get it all working so I have to listen to him tomorrow trying to set it up. I hate being around when he does projects!
