Christmas Light Parade

Yuma, Arizona         High 77 Low 43 

The weather here has been really nice for the last while. We are enjoying the warm temperatures.

We have been getting ready for Christmas. The Park recently had a light parade one evening. Bikes and golf carts were decorated for Christmas. I think they said they had almost 40 entries. We watched it from our front yard.






















Afterward they had singing and hot chocolate at the club house. We stayed for a while, but not until the end.

Thanks for visiting.

Ready For Christmas

Yuma, Arizona      High 79 Low 49 

The weather has be great, no wind, warm during the day and cools off at night.

Cindy had a quilt kit she has had for a few years, and finally decided it was time to make the quilt, Except, I'm the one that got to do it. This is the first quilt I have sewn and put together by myself. I usually help and do the quilting.




We got the house decorated, Cindy did the inside and I did the outside.














Cindy had a tote full of scrap batiks. She likes to test them for color fastness. When she put them in hot water, They bled color for several washing. 


Every afternoon, Penny want to go to the small dog park for Yappy Hour. One of the quilters made bandanas for all the dogs. Here is Penny with hers. 


Penny also has a friend, Izzy, that lives next door. her owner gave Penny a Christmas present with

doggie treats.


The Park put on a Christmas program with an electronic Christmas tree. The also have cookies of all sorts the residences bring for the light show. We had a good time going to it.





They play Christmas music and the light move to the music, pretty neat.

Thanks for visiting.

Nice Weather

 Yuma, Arizona         High 75 Low 51

The weather here has been really nice lately. Mid 70's during the day and in the 50's at night. It actually feels cool when the sun goes down.

I have been taking Penny to Yappy Hour at the small dog park most days. One day she chased a toy so much, she was tired the next day. 

We finally got our yard cleaned up. Now if we could get a little rain, everyone would be happy. It has been quite a while since Yuma has had any rain. When it gets windy, we get a lot of dust in the air.

I have also been playing shuffleboard three times per week.

We finally went to the taco place on the south frontage road and got shrimp tacos. They are really good and I'm sure we will be going back.



The place is pretty plain, but the tacos sure are good.

And Cindy has been busy quilting as usual. She has finish three quilts, ready for quilting, and we have only been here three weeks. 

I am sorry to hear about Kelly, from The Bayfield Bunch with her health problems and are hoping her the best.
