Work, Work, Work

I know, my title seems like an unlikely story, but it certainly has been a busy week for us.  We started off by moving from Lake Havasu to the Avi Casino (just outside of Laughlin, NV).   As we were leaving, we passed a couple of tenters who really wanted the comforts of home - you will see in the photo that they even have a satellite dish so they can watch their favourite programs.

Once we got settled in at the Avi, we put in a few dollars to pay for camping, and for once came out with a few more dollars which is always pretty great.  Monday morning meant we went for the 99 cent breakfat, and then we were off - a little further north.

We arrived in Pahrump, filled with fuel and propane and got settled in.  The fuel was reasonable - still under $4.00 per gallon.  I hope the trend continues.

This past week was spent working - Gerry waxed the motorhome and then spent a couple of days underneath it getting rid of any rust spots and painting over the cleaned areas to prevent more rust.  He got the ultimate compliment when a fellow came by and asked him what year the motorhome was.  He was totally surprised when he was told that it was 14 years old because he said "it looks too good for that age.  Mine is that old and it doesn't look like that".

Since the countdown is on, I was busy sewing my quilts.  Since I bought the material last winter, took it home, and then brought it back, I didn't think I should take it home again other than in a completed project.  Both quilts are sewn and one has been clipped so only one more left.

The only project left is to look at what we have stored in the bays.  That always brings a surprise when you find things that you didn't know you had, and didn't know why you had them.  But get rid of them and it won't be long before you wished you had it again!!

The weather this past week has been absolutely perfect - warm temps and little or no wind.  While the temperatures are predicted to be a bit lower with some wind, the weather is still great.  And it sure beats the heck out of what is happening back home with the winter that never wants to end.  We will try to gather up as much of the sunshine and warmth that we can to haul back with us.



Happy St. Patrick's day, have a good week and until next week................
