Merry Christmas

The motorhome is ready for Christmas

Christmas is upon us and it hardly seems like a year since out last Christmas but sure enough - it has been.  This past week has been very quiet for us.

We came onto a lot in the Foothills area of Yuma - next door to friends.  It has been great as it gives us a chance to catch up on some long overdue visiting.  Also, the weather hasn't always been sunny and warm so it's nice to have the amenities of electric and water - especially when preparing for Christmas.

This past week has seen sun, wind and rain - in fact  a total of just over 3/4 of an inch in two separate rains.  Hopefully this will make for a bountiful crop of wildflowers as the desert flowers are like no other.  It is so hard to believe the beauty that comes out of the arid landscape.

We went to a movie - Collateral Beauty - this past week.  I thought it was a great movie although I don't think everyone agreed with me.  If  any of you decide to go to see this movie, make sure you bring a supply of tissue.  The theater we went to had just undergone some renovations.  First, when you purchase your ticket, you choose your seats.  And the seats are true movie seats (but may be hard to keep your eyes open) as they are comfy, leather recliners.

As we go for our daily walk, we often come across some unusual things - this week it was a yard decoration.  Some folks are very creative, much to my enjoyment.

I hope each one of you have a wonderful Christmas that is filled with peace and health and happiness which will continue through the coming years.
