Feb 19th to 23rd - DHS

Feb 19th – Sun
We did something new this morning – we went to church!!! Actually, Larry & Barb were renewing their wedding vows as they are celebrating their 50th anniversary this week and the vows were taken at the weekly service here in the park. Then we joined them and a large group of their friends for lunch at a Mexican restaurant. Some of the lunch guests were people that Barb went to school with. They still live near them in Washington and they socialize regularly. Bob & Janet winter in Yuma, Bill & Nadine in Casa Grande, and Jim & Penny in Green Valley.
After lunch we stopped for a couple of items at Costco and then went to Russ & Judy’s (they also went to school with Barb & the others) for drinks and lots of laughs.
It took our table a long time to get food at the restaurant so lunch was late. This made it easy to have only artichokes and then dessert for dinner.

Feb 20th – Mon
Larry made 4 tee times for this morning and asked us to join the group. Russ used playing cards to determine who played together and he ended up with 3 women – me, Nadine & Laraine. It was a bit cool first thing in the morning but ended up just perfect. We waited until all the groups finished, took our clubs back to the rig and went to Russ & Judy’s for coffee with Bob & Janet and Bill & Nadine.
We had time for a sandwich and a bit of down time before we went to Ted & Maureen’s for happy hour(s) to celebrate Ted’s 65th birthday.

Feb 21st – Tues
I golfed at 7:45 today with the ladies’ club. I did OK and ended up winning money again for second low net in the first flight.
In the afternoon we went to visit John & Mary Ann. They were having company for dinner but we were early enough to have a couple of drinks with them before Mary Ann had to continue with dinner prep.
We had a quiet evening with dinner & TV.

Feb 22nd – Wed
It was Terry’s turn for golf at 8:16 this morning so I did laundry early. I still had to wait for washers at 7:30 and then wait for dryers. I was done before Terry got back so I could read for a while.
We went for a drive and ended up at the Spa Casino. We both won some money on our first machines. I kept enough to cover my “allowance” but Terry ended up putting all of his back in – a true gambler!!
We were a little late getting back to go for dinner at Jim & Debbie’s. I loaded Picasa on their computer and then helped them make some personal cards. They have a wireless printer and it wouldn’t print the whole page of cards so we printed a few on our printer but then our color ink ran out. We had a nice dinner and visit with them.

Feb 23rd – Thurs
We had a lazy morning and were just ready to go see Moe & Trish when they knocked on our door. They arrived late yesterday from Mesa. We chatted with them here, then went to their place for a bit and then we all went to lunch in Desert Hot Springs. We went to an RV parts & supply place before coming back.
On the way back to our rig, we stopped at Eldon & Elaine’s so Terry could see their new trailer. Most trailers have the bedroom in the front but their bedroom is in the back and up a couple of steps which allows for storage underneath like a 5th wheel. Of course we had to have a drink with them and visit for a while. It was nice to sit outside for a change. It was a little breezy to keep us cooled down.
We had a light dinner and then went to a dance here in the park which was well attended again. After the dance we helped move the tables for lunch tomorrow.
