LAZING AROUND THE RIG ALL DAY

MORNING CHAT WITH NEIGHBOR BOB & HIS FRISBEE CARRYING DOG, KELLY

Thought yesterday that we might do a day trip to-day but we ended up just sitting around having a relaxing day at the rig. Met another RV'er this morning & she was from Bracebridge, Ontario. Gee, are there no Americans out here.

The fellow we met yesterday is a bit of a photography buff so he dropped over this afternoon & installed some photo software on our computer that should help me make some improvements to my photos......if I can ever figure it out. The technology is getting faster & my brain is getting slower. His name is Bob & his wife's name is Bren & they have a home on Salt Spring Island between Vancouver Island & the main land. Nice folks traveling in a 5th wheel with their active frisbee chasing border collie dog named Kelly.

We have another week or so before heading down into the Douglas area so we've pouring over some travel plans between now & then. Considered heading over east of Phoenix to the Superstition Mtn area but I think we'll save that for March maybe. Or next October if we can swing it. It's actually nice to have the freedom to be indecisive. No hard & fast rules out here on the road if your not committed to RV Park schedules. This is our 47th consecutive day of not having to pay park fees anywhere. If you figure an average site price at $25 a night, then we have saved $1,175 dollars this past month & a half. Filled up with $60 worth of gas in Tucson back on December 9th & never filled up again until January 17th in Blyth California for $117.00. We're doin ok..........despite all our worries:))

BOB, KELLY THE DOG, & BREN

Weather has been great lately & we have not had to turn any heat on for the past 3 or 4 nights. Days have really been warm with actual humidity in the air. To-day was a tad uncomfortable but we sure can't complain. The winter weather across the north & back home is totally dreadful!! Sounds like the worst weather ever. BOB'S BUSY ON OUR COMPUTEER & THE GIRLS ARE TALKING ABOUT CELL PHONES

Not sure if we are going to roll out of here in the morning or not. Like I said, this great galloping RV world of indecision is an exciting & challenging thing:)))))))

No photos for the web album to-day.
