February is ticking down

It's late Feb and people are starting to talk about leaving for the season..Most people start heading home around the week before Easter and since Easter is coming earlier this year most will be gone by the third week of March..Park activities usually run through March so the ones of us still here will have plenty to do. We left for AZ about this time last year but so glad we didn't do that this year cause Tucson had snow on Wed. But our weather has been beautiful most of this season.. The best winter we've had in three years. We're probably going to be hanging around another 4-5 week then head back to NV for a while.
 Park activities will  be continuing through March so I wont be gettting bored even though some friends will be leaving till next fall.,
 On another note..We sold our Fifthwheel RV this past week. We kept it when we decided to go to a motorhome cause we weren't ready to let it go. We had it parked here in TX and use it one winter but for the most part it was just stored but our neighbor made us an offer so we sold it to him..
My girls need there supper so I'll go for now..

Hitch Itch

Is it a condition?.. it sure is and I think I have it.. I've been kinda down the past couple of days and I think I've figured out why.. Lack of travel. We arrived here in the valley on Oct 19 and we haven't moved.. That's how most of our winters go but after a few months I get ready to go.. Could be the weather here.. It's been beautiful and warm so we get conditioned that it's spring and time to get moving even when the rest of the country is still getting cold and snow.. I have plenty to keep me busy the next couple of months but for some reason I'm down.. My friend Rita is out of town so that could be part of it.. She's my run around pal.. We go shopping together, out to eat, play pool and crochet.. She's due back into town today so maybe I'll get back in the groove for the next 8 weeks.
 I do miss the traveling though.. I  miss waking up seeing the lake at Nachez Trace, or the mountains around our place in NV. I miss driving along the coast line in MS and seeing friends and family along the way.. I think by having the two places, one in TX and one in NV we've gotten out of RV'ing and more into running between the two places.. I think I like the simpler times of not having a home base and just going where the wind or weather took up..

Open House at the Park

Today is the Open House for the park. Martin puts it on every year to try and sell the remaining lots that's for sale.. It seems this year turn out is lower than normal but I guess it's the economy.
We grilled out hotdogs and had lunch outside today.
 We had our place open too but only one couple has stopped by so I guess there's not a lot of interest in buying this year.
 Today has been a beautiful day with sunshine and 70 degree temps.. Here's hoping our winter is over..
 I know that East Tenn got about 2.5 inches of snow.. Danny was out of school today..That's good for a long weekend.
 The park had their craft fair on Tues so that was fun.. Then on Wed we tried something new.. We had our first pool scramble. I decided to sign up so we'd have enough to play and I ended up tieing for first play among the girls.. It was so much fun. There were 6 girls and 6 guys and we played in teams of two.. I'll sign up to play again. I don't play often so we all know it was the guys I was paired with that carried me. Still it was fun. Going to the dance tomorrow night..

Happy Birthday Molly

Molly turned one on New Years Day.. She's become a real joy.. she still has her moments but then don't we all.

How can anyone deny this face

It's a new year

Happy New Year Everyone.. Hope the beginning of the New Year was wonderful for everyone.
The park here had a party so I went for a couple of hours. Saw friends (that I see just about daily) heard some music and had a blast.. Reid stayed home with the girls (what a wonderful excuse to have) Fireworks were going off all over the valley so that was keeping Molly running from one window to the other. She handled them a little better than she did on July 4th.
 Our weather has cooled. It's been drizzly and cool the last two or three days but we can't complain cause this has been a much better winter than the last three..
 This month I'll stay busy with dance a couple days a week. Bible study and next Tues is the Ladies Birthday Luncheon which I'm hosting with Rita. That will be fun can't wait for that..We also have a park craft show and my office work.. Something going on every week to keep me busy.. This winter is flying by.

Merry Christmas

I've said that dozens of times today.. It brings a smile to my face.
 We had a great lunch on the patio and the girls are quietly playing with their new toys and chew bones. The weather is 85 degrees and sunny and that's wonderful.....but the front is headed our way and will be here early in the morning. Tomorrow will be almost 30 degrees cooler than today.
 So far this winter is better than the last three years as far as warner temps and sunshine.. and we like that.
 Steph worked yesterday and is sleeping today. we talked last night for a while.. She thought last night that her heat might be going out, hope that's not the case.
 Danny texted me earlier.. he didn't have any plans today but he's got ball tournaments this week.
That's all so I'll say it again Merry Christmas.

Dec 2012

Where did Dec go.. I really thought I had posted this month but it looks like I haven't..the weather has been beautiful since Thanksgiving so I guess I just got busy and didn't blog anything..
 Now Christmas is just days away and we're enjoying some Christmas activities.. Last Friday we had our Christmas pot luck at the rec ctr with some games, great food and Christmas Carols. Tonight was our park golf park parade which I love to do but once again I have a head cold/allergy thing going on and I'm not feeling great, so instead of riding in the parade I stayed at the house and waved at them as they went by..
 We had a cool front pass through this week with a couple of days of strong wind and gust and then the temps dropped.. My allergies started bothering me when the wind started on Wed and then the sneezing and stuffy head. I hope it's over soon.
 Molly is playing with her toys and having a great time with them while Lady is sitting here looking at me growling so she much want to go out (but she just came inside)
so Merry Christmas everyone.
