Sunny Days

We arrived in Yuma early in the week and it was a great chance to settle down a bit and relax.  We met up with friends and cousins (same folks) and finally are having a great visit with them.

We thoroughly enjoyed Empire Ranch - an area of grassland steppe with a backdrop of the mountains.  The quiet was wonderful although one night I did hear the coyotes off in the distance.  The days were mild and sunny but the nights were a tad chilly.  We had decided to leave Monday morning and when we got up, the outside temps were 27F (or -3C) - way too cold for us so it was time go to a lower altitude - so here we are.

Our annual trip to Algondones was made this past week.  They serve delicious shrimp and fish tacos so we had lunch, checked out some of the vendors, bought our bottle of Kahlua (on $7.50 for 950 ml) and called it a day.  It was a fun day as we chatted with some of the vendors.

It is time for Christmas joy - I set up the tree and most of the decorations.  Certainly don't want to do it all in one day so have saved some for tomorrow.

A quiet week with not much to say.  All of you at home, stay warm, and hope you come back next week.
