Snakes,Frogs and Chicken Enchiladas

Pam and SuzyBruce and GarySnake Pool

Jack and I had a great dinner at Pam and Bruce's last night... Chicken Enchiladas,rice,cornbread and salad. Pam is a wonderful cook.

The ducks that live on the golf course had become a nuisance and were hanging out in the swimming pool so Bruce put a fake snake in it to ward them off. Apparently it worked for awhile, but now the ducks have become friends with the snake and swim right along with it. It's just plain creepy Bruce. I think he just wants to keep his friends out of the pool now.

We were sitting outside on the patio enjoying the warm temperatures as the sun went down and a beautiful view of the golf course when I heard a baby scream down the fairway....it continued for quite some time so I mentioned it to Bruce. He said it is the frogs mating! No kidding it was "Night of the Living Dead" eerie. Pam and Bruce said they get used to it.

For the next three evenings Jack and I have a security deal at the Tennis Gardens for the "Festival of Life" which I believe is a Jesus Festival but hopefully  without screaming frogs.

Inside Our Vacation Home

KitchenLiving roomBedroom

All washed and waxed on the outside and cleaned inside. Loading up stuff that won't get stolen like sponges,paper towels and peanut butter.  :)

Lemon Suckers Beware!

"Lemon Suckers" is the term I use for the old ladies in this neighborhood who are so annoyed that they have to drive waaaay around the 5th wheel when it's parked in front of our house. They purse their lips like they just sucked a lemon...they might actually have to slow down! Hey Dan...go get your rig and lets really tick 'em off!

Wind Here vs. Wind There

I kind of like the wind in Washington..unless it is one of those tree smashing WINTER STORMS!!. It cleans the air and smells fresh. The wind down here blows all the dust around. Windy,overcast and about 80 degrees today.

Jack is bringing the 5th Wheel home tomorrow to wash and wax it, clean up the inside and load a few items (not worth stealing I might add).

13 days until Vegas!

26 Days until Road Trip 2010!

Easter Eathquake!

There was a 6.9 earthquake about 3:30PM centered in Baja CA/Northern Mexico. We didnt feel a thing...and no damage at home.

Staging Area

Jack and I will be leaving for Road Trip 2010 in 27 days. He made a Costco run this morning and we are stacking stuff by the front door (which we never use). Okay, so big deal there are 12 bottles of Black Velvet ..we'll be gone for 5 months and it's cheaper here than in Washington!

Going over to Santa Rosa Country Club this afternoon to spank some white boys...translation..play golf.

Space Needle Sold!

My daughter,in Washington, just called and said she heard a news report that the Space Needle has been sold to investors for conversion to condos! My response..April Fools... Can't fool me..a few years ago I heard a radio blurb that said the Space Needle had toppled over and collapsed. (again April 1)

Anyway..it is  a cool 64 and sunny here but thunderstorms are expected. No April Fools but it doesnt seem likely.

Jack and I are hunting down a self service laundry today to wash the rugs from the 5th wheel. We started making our lists....Things to take, things to buy,things to do. Some of the items on our lists are obvious,like taking the coffee maker or underwear...but I remember a few years back when I went on a camping trip and not only forgot a coffee pot but an axe to chop firewood.....probably a good thing I forgot the axe since I didn't have my morning coffee..ha
