We
went to the office to sign up for another week and while we were
there Terry commented on the huge weeds on the lot where we are
staying. A short time later, 2 workers showed up with shovels to
uproot the weeds and then came back to rake them all up when we went
shopping. First we stopped for lunch at “Souper! Salad!” which
was right beside a Staples where we were going to start shopping. It
is a soup/salad buffet which I have enjoyed previously and Terry put
up with for me! At Staples we saw a wire shelf but didn't get it
right away since we were on the bike. After going through Tuesday
Morning we went back to buy the shelf and came home to hang it up.
Now
we needed 3 baskets or boxes to hold the “junk” that will be
moved from the table to the shelf. We again took the bike to
WalMart, another Staples, Kmart & BigLots with no success. At
Hobby Lobby we were on our way out when Terry spotted some perfect
boxes – 60% off! We were smart enough to leave Terry's helmet at
home and could fit 2 boxes in that compartment and I got to hold to
other one. When we got back we found out that they were indeed
perfect and just had to rig up a bungee to hold them in place when we
travel.
Terry
was having problems with his Kindle and trying to buy promotions from
games. First we searched the net for answers and finally ended up
talking to a guy at Amazon who was wonderful. We had to deregister
the credit card, totally delete the Amazon account and then set
everything back up again. The support person was very patient and
when he didn't have to ask how to spell “Sprague” we found out
that he was based in the Tri Cities in WA.
May 21st –
Thurs
We
went to coffee & doughnuts this morning. There was a small group
as some people were going on a trip on the Desert Belle. Nothing
exciting going on.
We went back to the casino and this time I was smart enough to take a book so I had something to do after I lost my money!! When we got back, we called a lady in Show Low to rent their lot for the month of June. Then we went to see if Robin still wanted to play golf
tomorrow and ended up staying to play cards again. Neil is going to
golf as well since he had made a mistake on an appointment that he
thought was tomorrow. Robin brought out containers of yummy fruit
which ended up being dinner since we weren't too hungry when we got
home. We did end up with a dish of ice cream a bit later!
May 22nd –
Fri
Neil
& Robin picked us up at 6:50 to play golf at Greenfield Lakes GC.
The weather was absolutely perfect and we all had decent games. We
decided to go to Joe's Farm Grill for an early lunch rather than
joining the rest of the golfers at the Duchess. There was quite a
large group today which makes it hard for the cook to get everyone's
orders out sort of together and we wanted to see this new place based
on Neil & Robin's recommendation.
The
Farm Grill is on Ray Rd east of Greenfield. You can eat inside or
outside under HUGE trees. We actually ended up having breakfast –
except for Neil who had an egg on his burger so I guess it was
breakfast! Then we walked around the rest of the grounds and through
the second restaurant which had a different menu. Nice place, will
return sometime.
We
stayed at Neil & Robin's and played cards for a few hours. We
had a couple of hours to relax and have a burger before going to a
dance at Tower Point. Reign 'n Country was playing and we like to
dance to them. A few people joined us on some line dances and we
joined a couple of theirs. We sat with 2 people – Jack & Sandy
– who were very nice and we enjoyed talking with them.
