THE FIRST RV TO ROLL THOUGH OUR NEW GATE

In Friday night’s moonlight it was an accordion I heard first.  And, then it was the sound of people singing in Spanish.  It was Thanksgiving week-end on Ghost Town Road & a Mexican family just south of us had come together to celebrate & sing.  In our travels, we have found Mexican folks to be very music oriented celebratory people.  I kinda liked the distant sound drifting through the Mesquite on the quiet desert night air.

I hung out on the end of my leaf rake this morning while Kelly did a garage sale in Congress.  More little southwest treasures found their way to our house including a customary skeletal Steer’s head.  Some Mexican pottery along with some Mexican curtains.  Average price for each item….about a dollar:))

 

A quick trip into Wickenburg had us listening to Christmas Carols in an Alco store.  Slipped across the road to Stewarts Hardware to pick up our wooden screen door & applicable hardware.  It’s anybody’s guess if it is going to install correctly.  We might just have to find somebody with a sledge hammer to make it fit!!  Getting a standard size door to work well in an old house is a real Turkey shoot.  Oh, & mentioning Turkeys….yep, turkey sandwiches for lunch:))

It was early afternoon when Jean & Skip rolled in with doggy Pals, Jake, Sophie & Louie.  Last time we saw them was a couple winters ago at the Clark Dry Lake Bed near Borrego Springs California.  Jake & Pheebe didn’t exactly hit it off right away today but after a bit all was well & they were best Pals.  The whole gang gets along great & it’s nice for Pheebs to have some Pals to play with.

 

JEAN & SKIP ROLL IN EARLY THIS AFTERNOON

 

DON’T KNOW WHICH ONE IS LOUIE & WHICH ONE IS SOPHIE BUT THAT’S JAKE ON THE RIGHT FOR SURE

NOW HERE’S A HAPPY SNOW BIRD FAMILY:))

We all sat on our front porch for a couple hours & it was nice to get caught up on everything, compare notes, & set a few fellow RVing Bloggers ears abuzzing:))

 

LOTS OF SMOOCHES GOING ON TODAY

We have enough room to easily park any size RV on our property so we suggested Jean & Skip just stay right here in our newly fenced yard where it would be safe for the doggy guys to be out & about.  Pheebe liked that idea as well.

YAAAAY, HERE COMES THE PIZZA:)))))

It was a good night for Pizza so Kelly & Jean headed off over to the Congress Mercantile Depot to bring back a big yummy fully loaded 300 pound Supreme.  Well, maybe not quite that heavy, but if we keep it up…..we’ll all be that heavy for sure.

AND A GOOD PIZZA WAS HAD BY ALL
