Casa Grande, Arizona: Wash Day For Harley & Tiffin

This morning I was able to wash 3 sides of the RV and the Harley before the wind blew up. Not wanting the spray to hit the RV next to us I called it quits, leaving one side for tomorrow.

It's pretty funny because if you approach the RV from the South, it shine and sparkles like new. If you approach from the North, that side is still covered in dirt and grime.

Tomorrow I plan to get up early and go play 'pickle ball'. Don't know much about it however everyone I've talked to says it's both fun AND addictive. Two people on each side and you play with paddles and a whiffle ball on a court about 1/4 the size of a tennis court. Sounds cool; I'll let you know.

After another afternoon of Water Volleyball today I had a chance to explore the park a little bit more. Today I 'discovered' the softball fields and the area reserved for flying remote controlled airplanes.

They have so many activities and most are priced pretty reasonably. The woodworking shop is huge with every imaginable tool. Costs $1 per hour to use the wood working shop. I would like to build a few shelves for the cabinet in the bathroom and a pill out drawer/shelf for the cabinet under the sink. It's an irregular shaped space so building that drawer should be a lot of fun.

Mary Lynn is excited about the lapidary room. She could see tumblers and all kinds of devices to cut, grind and polish gems. If you have been reading this regularly you know we have been lugging around about 25 pound of gems/rocks since we went gem hunting back in June/July. Now she'll get to start converting the raw material into gems. Very cool.

Up until November 3rd (2008) you can reach us via a land line at: 520/876-7421. This should ring directly in our RV.

See Ya!
