By the time I peeked out our front window the sun was up behind the clouds. We had our coffee and Tom went out to get the bladder ready in the Jeep to go and get us some needed water. When he came back in he said it was chilly and windy. So I got dressed appropriately for spending some time outside to say so long to Kim and Ken who are pulling out this morning to search out new adventures.
The sun is up and shining. |
After checking the lights they are off to make new memories. |
Now we are three. Left to Right: Suzie & George, The Stinger "B", Shirley & Ken |
Yes another picture of the Ocotillo and there will probably be a couple more before we leave. I am so happy it bloomed while we were here. |
Looking out the windows it was a beautiful sunny day with blue skies and wonderful white fluffy clouds which skipped across the sky. Even standing outside the views were wonderful but the wind was definitely letting us know it was here. The clouds were constantly moving and casting beautiful shadows on the mountains around us. It did not matter which way you looked north, south, east, west, or straight up the show was ever changing throughout the day.
Because of the wind it was suggested we cancel or hold Happy Hour inside. Tom and I were happy to be able to host in the Stinger "B". With only six of us we have more then enough room for everyone to be able to sit and relax. We had just gotten settled in when I saw a familiar truck coming our way, Kathy and Rick, It's about time had decided to join us. What a nice surprise to see them pull up. After a couple of hugs, this was there first time seeing Shirley and Ken this year, we all settled in and as always in no time at all several lively conversations were taking place. I would say in the time we have been here, even though the group has changed a couple of times, the conversation and laughing over stories told has been constant. Our time in this place is winding down but we will take many happy memories with us.

Wake Up Each Day
&
Be Thankful For Life.
We are glad you dropped by.
If you would like to leave a comment we would enjoy hearing from you.
The skies with the clouds were amazing, but the wind unrelenting, thanks for hosting Happy Hour inside was much more comfortable. Always lots of conversation and laughs during those fun times.
ReplyDeleteWe were happy to be able to host Happy Hour and get us all out of that wind today.
DeleteWe were happy to finally be able to join in Happy Hour yesterday.
ReplyDeleteThe Wind was hitting our unit hard throughout the night.
Get ready for the Cold for the next couple of days and nights.
Be Safe and Enjoy this beautiful weather.
It's about time.
We were happy you and Kathy joined us. Always nice to see you two.
DeleteStay warm.
So much fun when you are with a great group of people. Don't stop posting pictures of the Ocotillo, I love to see them when they are in bloom :-)
ReplyDeleteThe Ocotillo is my absolute favorite plant out here and I love the fact that I was able to see it get buds and watch the leaves slowly start opening.
DeleteThe group is getting smaller and smaller, soon be time to pull up the feet and move forward. Hopefully the wind lets up and the cold temperatures move out quickly. Still a nice way to spend the time though, tucked in among good friends, enjoying the laughter and the friendship and just enjoying the little pleasures in life. Every day is a good day. Take care.
ReplyDeleteEvery thing you said is so true. Unless something changes, and we all know how it can, one more day and all that will be left here is our tire tracks. We will take all the memories with us.
DeleteWe are hoping the same thing, totally ready for the wind to leave and take the cold temperatures with it.
Love the cloudy skies, not so thrilled with the chill!!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree!!!
DeleteYou have a beautiful spacious home, lots of room for 6 and then 2 more!
ReplyDeleteLots of memories are made during the winter months, we also value each one and each Happy Hour.
What a beautiful rock! haha
Thank you.
DeleteIt is a beautiful rock...:)
Nothing like the great Quartzsite happy hours. Good times and good friends.
ReplyDeleteKeep enjoying wherever you head!
You are quite the party animals!!!
