No new rig for us at this time

We came to Mesa, AZ to look at a 2007 Cardinal we found on the internet, but, alas, it wasn’t the right one for us.  It was very, very well used…actually looked like it had been purchased at an auction and there was canned goods still in the pantry.

But we got a call from our friends Joel and Barbara who were driving to Chandler from Casa Grande, so we made plans to meet them after looking at the rv.  I have become Joel’s personal computer geek having spent 11 hours cleaning viruses from his computer in the midst of the terrible wind storm we lived through in Quartzsite.  This time he couldn’t register his Avast Anti-virus and his trial was version expired yesterday.  So we drove to Chandler and I figured uninstalled and reinstalled Avast and got it to register.

We are going to dinner with The Bubars at a Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives recommended restaurant called Giuseppe's.  Their menu looks very interesting and they make their own pasta daily!  That’s something.   The Bubars have eaten there before and say it is very good.  Can’t wait.

By the way, the Bubar’s new rig is fabulous and with Mike’s carpentry talents he is making many nice additions.

Remember, you are loved.

Leaving Laughlin

We are leaving Laughlin today and heading for Mesa, AZ so tomorrow we can check out a rig we're interested in...keep your fingers cross that it works for us; we really would like a third slide to give us more of a "living room" feel to a rig, plus update us three years.

Here are some photos of Laughlin from the other side of the river in Bullhead City, AZ.

Jim and I have been coming to Laughlin for about 25 years.  Jim’s parents (Kenneth and Ada Beth) would come here every two years to meet Kenneth’s brother and wife (Bob and Helen) who came from  Southern California. We came with them one year and enjoyed the slower pace than we had experienced in Las Vegas.  So from then on we visited Laughlin every few years.  Now that all those parents are gone we meet with one of Bob and Helen’s sons every couple of years here in Laughlin to “keep up the tradition”. This year we met with Mark Chapman for two days and had a grand time with him.

At the same time we enjoyed spending time with Jim and Linda Mossman, who we met in Parker. They were also at Boomerville, but with so many people there we hadn’t met them. Once in a while you meet people who “just fit” with you and that is what happened with Jim and Linda…we all “just fit” and enjoy being with one another a lot. 

Yesterday I finally “got in the mood” and quilted the baby quilt for our great-granddaughter, Amity.  Now all I have to do is hand-sew the binding. I’m glad it is going to be done and ready to give them when we visit them in April.

Ok, Jim, OK, I’ll stop typing and get the rig ready to move!  Remember, you are loved.
