I was going to walk this morning but Larry said he thought Jan and Judy were gone so he went to walk with Ken and I stayed home.
I decided it was past time to do a color on my hair. It was so bleached from the sun and very, very gray!! I'm sure if I quite coloring it I would have snow white hair as I've had so much gray since I was 30, I just haven't let it go long enough to find out the real color!! I put the color on my hair and pick up around the RV while the color processed. I got a shower and felt like I was 20 years younger after covering the gray. It's amazing how much better I feel with a new color job!!!
Went over to Gordon and Brenda's to visit for awhile. I was going to go on to talk with Judy and Jan but realized today was Saturday and I wanted to run into Yuma to the small farmer's market at the mall. Last year we bought tomatoes from a guy from Sommerton, AZ which is about 10 miles south of Yuma. They were amazing tomatoes with so much flavor. Every time we have bought tomatoes here, they have tasted like Styrofoam until we found this guy. After buying the first time from him, we went back each week but found he was not always there. Today we walked the line of produce but didn't see him but when we turned around to go back we found his table. We ended up buying several tomatoes from him and he had samples of his small cherry tomatoes which were also very good so we bought a carton of them as well. Last year we met a lady who is also from Sommerton and she makes homemade salsa. Her name is Annabelle and we saw and talked to her many times last year. I saw a table with her salsa on it and ask if she was not there and the lady said she was downtown selling at the festival. We drove on down to the historic part of Yuma where they were holding the festival but did not find Annabelle. We decided to eat a late lunch at Lutes Casino which we have eat at several times. The line to get in was pretty long but we waited as we knew from past visits that they move pretty fast.
We got our table and I ordered a Tri Tip Sandwich and Larry had a Pastrami Reuben. We ordered a couple of beer and it was so cold it tasted wonderful. When our meal came we ordered another beer and a different waiter brought it to our table and instead of draft beer, he brought us bottles. We said 'oh well' and poured them in our glasses. We had drank less than half of the 2nd beer when our regular waiter came with two draft beer. He said they were on the house since they brought bottled beer by mistake. OMG I looked at the two glasses setting in front of me wondering how I would drink all of it. By the time we left, both Larry and I drank both of our beer and felt like they could roll us out into the street.
We walked around awhile longer and listened to the music before leaving. Never did see Annabelle so will have to look for her next week as there is another festival downtown on Saturday.
We stopped at Walmart to pick up a few items and headed home. It was so hot when we walked in that we turned the air conditioning on. The high today was officially 89 per the weather on TV and it broke a record for today here in Yuma. I think we are to have another few days of hot weather before we get a break about midweek.
