Foothills, Yuma AZ

Buss and Jane dropped in for a visit and we did some major touring so they could see as much as possible. We were able to rent a trailer across the road that offered them their own space. Worked out really well. We took them to Mexico to enjoy the festivities, to the desert to see the 'Big Squeeze' and the 'Desert Graffiti', to the Yuma Territorial Prison and,,,, to the Casino (even tho they are not gamblers). Packed a lot into a short period of time. They left on Thurs for San Diego and we packed for Disney. Drove to Phoenix Friday and then flew into Orlando Saturday.

We are having a great time in the foothills with our friends. Kids cut our supply of Geritol as Sheriff was called to settle down our 'roudy' parties on more than one occasionl. Happy hours here include 'jamming' sessions with as many as 9 musicians strumming guitars, banjos and drums. Trips to Mexico are very different to crossing the border from Texas. We enjoy partying at the outside restaurants to the music of local bands (and Wally). Went out partying for St. Paddy's day but not as much going on here. John and Wally dressed for the part and we did drink lots of beer. Hot during the days but evenings cool off for great sleeping at nights. Enjoying the desert, casinos and friendships.

We are having a great time. Have updated photos in the Picasa Stream below. John went ATVing in the desert today and had a great time. We went to Mexico the other day and had a great time. Been to the flea market. Stopped in to visit Bill and Doris tonight. Hot here but cool breeze helps

Yuma, here we come. Stayed at the Voyager in Tucson last nite and had a pleasant stay. Went to Trader Joe's (yes there is one here) and loaded up on cheap wine. Found a Whole Foods store and loaded up on Spelt bread for John. Great store. Bought a Rosemary plant and a Basil plant so I can have fresh herbs like Paula and Bonnie. Took a look at Rick and Bonnie's blog and pictures are awesome. We haven't been to these caverns but look like the ones in Bristol Virginia. Bill and Glenda haven't been on their blog for a year so will send them an email to see where they are. The friends who got us started on a blog years ago toured Oregon and Washington this fall which is where we are headed in a couple of months. So we'll take a close look at their info to see the areas we want to make sure to cover. That's it. Will be in the Foothills just after lunch and staying there until mid April (aside from a 2 week flight to Disneyworld). Life is great.
