You Can't Go Back

 Yuma, Arizona         High 89 Low 56

It is starting to get warm here. It probably is time to think about going back to Utah.

The Park had a two day event they called Palmstock. It was a thing that remined everyone of Woodstock. We called it Hippie Days. People dressed up like hippies and played games and had lots of food. It was a two day thing. The first day was games and food.

This is as close to being Hippies as Cindy and I got.

When we got to where the party was, We noticed an ambulance close by, which soon left. We found out later that someone had taken the hippie thing too far and had smoked some pot. It had an adverse reaction on him and he started falling down and so someone called 911. I bet that the para-medics got a big kick over someone being a hippie at his age and seeing all the hippie costumes. This is where I got the name of this Post.

The second day was mostly water games.

The final event was the Hula-hoops. The winner had her hoop going for almost 4 minutes. She looked like she could have gone on a lot longer because it looked like very little effort to keep the hoop going.

Thanks for visiting.

Da Boys

 Yuma, Arizona        High 73 Low 50

We had lots of wind and rain this week. Along with all the rain, it got cold. Yesterday was a nice day, but still had wind. Today the weather is perfect.

A bunch of us went to Da Boys for dinner. the room they reserved could only handle 14 people. We had a good time visiting and the food is excellent, the same as usual.

This next picture is Ron and Anna. They are the couple that sold their fifth wheel and are currently trying to sell their lot. They live in Edmonton and Ron has told me that with his health conditions, it is just too expensive to come to Yuma any more. We will miss them.

We had what they call a lettuce wedge salad. It is half a head of lettuce with other things added. It was way more salad than we could eat, so we got to take the extra home. We also got a large pizza, and it has made several meals for us. Everyone had a good time.

Thanks for visiting.

Quilt Shows

 Yuma, Arizona      High 78 Low 46

The weather here has been quite unsettled. One day it will be like summer and the next back cold. We had strong winds for three days last week and after the sun goes down it gets cold.

We had two quilt shows to go to at two different Parks. The first Park didn't seem to have near as good of show this year, compared to other years. No where near as many entries and the number of vendors was way down. The other Park had a nice show, but again, the number of vendors was way down. 

This quilt was my favorite from both shows. It was at the second show. Most of the Pictures are from that show.

This one was also very nice.

The quilt store at the Arizona Market, Bonnies Fabrics, is closing at the end of this season and she is liquidating all supplies. Right now they are giving 40% off of everything in the store, and every time we have gone, they are really busy. This is where we buy most of our fabric, and Cindy says that after they close for good, she will probably only buy fabric at yard and estate sales. 

I think Cindy has probably made 20 quilts since we have been here since November.

Thanks for visiting.
