Yesterday was basically a cleaning and laundry day. We walked with Ken, Judy and Jan and then stopped at their place and visited for awhile before heading home for our day of work.
Friday we walked again with the Jackson's and stopped for coffee at their place. Pat came over and we visited with her for quite sometime. We came home and cleaned up and went into the Indoor Flea Market as Larry wanted to pick up some books at the bookstore at the market. We had lunch at In and Out Burgers, one of my son-I-law's favorite burger places. We picked up some groceries and got home about 3:00. Jan and Judy wondered down for awhile after dinner to visit.
Saturday morning Jan called and said they were not going to walk today so we decided not to walk either. Doesn't take much to convince us! We got ready and went to the Saturday Farmer's Market at the mall in Yuma. After picking up a few items, we exchanged a shirt for Larry and looked around for rugs for motor home. We decided to drive down to Somerton, AZ and have lunch at the Main Street Café. We ate there last year and it was very good. When we got to Somerton, the restaurant was not open. I couldn't believe it was closed as they have been doing a lot of advertising on TV lately.
We drove back into Yuma and passed a restaurant near 'Old Town' that looked interesting. The name was something like Copper Mine Bar and Grill. We decided to try it for a change. Well all I can say is you never know till you try a place but be assured, once was enough. The food was just ok but the atmosphere was like walking into a nursing home. Drab and furnishings must have been from early 50's. Our waitress acted like it was a pain for her to wait on us. There were other normal looking people eating there and they must have been regulars as everyone seemed to know them and were very friendly with them. We must have had the look of 'out of towners' or whatever but we did not feel welcome. So we marked that one off the list.
Came home and turned on the Air Conditioner as it got very warm today. About 3:30 every day it almost becomes unbearable with the heat. It is so cold in the mornings that I have long pants and a sweatshirt on and it takes till almost noon to warm up and then it feels like it goes from 0 to 90 degrees within about a 3 hour time frame! I guess that's typical of the dessert! We should be use to it by now.
Sunday was absolutely a kick back day for me. Larry was so bored he started waxing the RV. We had it washed and waxed when we were in Los Cruces about 3 weeks ago but he can see some smearing on the side panels so it gives him a reason to re wax. Jan told him about some wax at the flea market that he picked up either on Friday or Saturday. He messed around most of the day on the one side of RV.
I went to Walmart to pick up some items which took me an hour and a half because it was so crowded. I should have gone early this morning as the place is crawling with people after 8:00am everyday. I hate going there but needed some items that I couldn't get at grocery store.
Jan and Judy came down this afternoon and brought the blanket they made for Oliver. They are such amazing people and are always doing something for someone! The blanket is very cute with bears in blue and brown. Leslie and Pete basically decorated Oliver's nursery in brown and blue so will look great in there. I walked home with them as they bought fabric to make 2 more quilts for each of Jan's granddaughters. They also finished another quilt for another granddaughter that they wanted me to see. They make such pretty quilts and I wish I had an interest in learning how to quilt.
Came home a fixed dinner which is pretty much the sum of my exciting last few days.
