June 10th to 12th - Show Low/Juniper Ridge

June 10^th – Wed

It took me a while to catch up the blog!! Then with nothing else planned we went for a bike ride to the casino to get information about a poker run near the end of the month. Of course we had to play slots for quite some time. We stopped at WalMart to get chicken for dinner but they didn't have any made up so we went to Safeway which is a really nice, big, clean store. Another quiet evening with games, TV & a book.

June 11^th – Thurs

Line dance lessons this morning. A lady (Lyn, husband John) who we met briefly at the dance Tuesday asked if we wanted to play croquet at 4:00. We don't know how to play but agreed that it would be fun. We had lunch & relaxed until 4:00.

We were joined by another couple – Frank & Eilsa(sp ?). We were only on the second wicket when it started to rain. We sheltered under a big tree and were just ready to go back out when it rained harder so we decided to bag it. We wiped off the bike, rode back, put on the cover and took the truck to follow John & Lyn to their house on “the creek”. They rent a spot here in the park so they can attend all the functions but have had a house a few miles away for 7 years.

We had drinks, chatted & ordered pizza from nearby Red House Pizza. A fun evening.

June 12^th – Fri

We skipped most of the first hour of line dance lessons since I have given up on learning them! The instructor (Linda) is reviewing a lot of previously taught dances as there in a line-dance dance tomorrow. I did OK in the second hour and we both did great in the third hour.

We took the bike to Show Low and had lunch at a restaurant that we had eaten at some years ago. We made another stop at Safeway since we have to take a snack to share to the dance tomorrow and of course I didn't have anything on hand that I wanted to take.

Terry got out the BBQ to cook steak for dinner. Afterwards we took the bike for a ride around all the roads in the park. People love the Spyder and we get a lot of comments as we ride. We also get lots of waves from people that we recognize and lots that we don't.
