Wednesday, 2/2 found us on the road again from Gila Bend to Parker - out on Shea Road 8 miles from town with a bunch of Boomer friends. Three couples we knew and ended up meeting two other couples. On Thursday, they had time trials for the Road Race (Parker 425) so Duane and Jerry went to the pits to watch some of that. I worked on my genealogy...off to Scotland for a bit. In the afternoon Duane, Betty, Jerry and I went into town to the flea market, grocery store and the guys went to the car show. On Friday they had "tech inspection" so the guys went to watch. Saturday at 7:24 AM the first of the pack came through the wash near where we were parked, so we all gathered at the edge to watch. After a while, we all disbanded to our separate ways and Jerry and I squirreled around on the dirt paths to view the race from various areas. Sure was varied areas - washes, steep hills with a 90 degree turn at the bottom, and lots of soft fine dirt! It was a beautiful day so it was a pleasure to be out and around!
Yesterday it was a Super Bowl party at Betty and Duane's - 4 couples. Had a great time...I made sloppy joes and we had deviled eggs, waldorf apple salad and beer bread...oh yes, chocolate chip cookies and adult beverages.
Walked most days at least a mile - usually 1.5 or so. TAlso had happy hour daily at 4 PM. It was nice enough each day to be outside. Today after brunch of egg casserole, quick breads and fruit and juice, we walked 2.6 miles. Jerry went off scrounging firewood from abandoned sites so we would have wood for our next location in Havasu at the Steppes.
Brunch: Judy Messex and Betty Anderson
Betty, Duane, Clark, Mick Ann Jerry and Judy. Sue's taking the photo.
We're going to hang out here another couple of days, then move north about 1/2 hour to The Steppes - south of Havasu City for a couple of weeks. See ya later!
