It has been hard to tell. However, as we are making our way from Tucson to Yuma, it is approaching eighty today, so I guess we are gradually getting there.
We spent our last two nights in Tucson at the overflow area at Davis Monthan AFB before moving on to Yuma, which we are doing at the moment. DM has a great Famcamp, but it is very busy this time of year, so to get a space with hookups, it usually takes two or three days of dry camping in the overflow area. We were only there for the two nights, so no problem.
Yesterday we happened on the biggest Ace Hardware store I have ever seen. The storefront covered more than a half block, and about 1/3 of the building was nothing but housewares. Ken entertained himself on the hardware side, and you know where I was. It pretty much qualifies as one of those "must see" locations.
The trip to Surprise didn't produce a surprise. It is scary to consider buying a used coach when you don't know the history.....and as we all know, the sales people will tell you anything. It is as if they consider every potential buyer as someone who doesn't know a motor home from motorcycle!!
We enjoyed two more evenings of entertainment before leaving Rincon Country. Both were guitarists/singers. Jimmy Fortune sang tenor for the Statler Brother for many years, but his best rendition of the evening was Roy Orbison's "Pretty Woman". He nailed it!!
We will be in Yuma for the next two weeks and will join the Spragues and the Ouseys. I'm not sure what there is to do to keep us occupied for two weeks, but we will keep each other company. I will spend some time at a dentist since I lost a big filling earlier this week. Oh joy.
Colleen and Jim and the girls are back from a lovely time in Hawaii. A luau and a swim with dolphins were two of the highlights. Now it is back to swimming and working and school.
Just in the last month we have been invited to three 50th wedding anniversary parties. How could we be possibly be old enough to have friends and family old enough to have been married fifty years? Hmmmm, we are at 49!! Ciao
