Where are we today ?
Still wonderful weather here and we are loving every minute of it. Early morning walkabouts watching the sunrise, warm morning and so colorful.

so impressive sunrise |
Then before we get too much sun I am going to attempt a stone chip repair on the windshield of our coach. Could not get it done in Benson, when we were there. But a comment from a fellow
Paul Dahl blogger suggested getting a kit from NAPA auto parts for ten dollars. So I stopped in yesterday in Yuma and picked one up.
All peppered and ready to go this morning I set to work before the sun hit the windshield.

this kit from Napa |
All I had to to do was follow the instruction, pretty easy actually.
|
almost done |
|
all done should work, easy and cheap, love cheap! |
Then more walkabouts the resort and the desert, open spaces and blues skies, love it.
The pool here is inviting but not heated, too cold for me.
|
nice relaxing spot by the laundry |
Then we enjoy some quiet time enjoying our e-readers for a while. Suzie got her doggie fix when Bruno stopped by for a visit.

Bruno stop to say Hi to Suzie. |
Shortly after 1 pm Rene and Jeanette stopped in for a visit. Fellow Rv'ers and bloggers that we follow from British Columbia Canada we met last winter in desert Hot Springs. Check out their bog
HERE if you wish. Such a super couple and so friendly. As usual we talked and talked (mostly me, cause I never shut up). They had been to Algadones Mexico (on their motorcycle) this morning only a couple miles away and stopped in for a coffee this afternoon on their way back home. So nice to see them again and get caught up from last year.

just pulling in |
So busy chatting never did take a picture until time for them to leave. Amazing how the time flies by when just sharing stories.
|
ready to go |
|
hope to see you guys down the road again soon |
|
They brought us a nice treat too, Jeanette had picked up some huge fresh naval oranges in a campground on their way south. Thanks guys we will enjoy them for sure. |
Once they left we just hung out here enjoying more of this great weather and our e-readers, sure is nice that we both enjoy reading!
Before we knew it the sun was beginning to set. So time to fire up our Weber Q 100 grill a couple turkey burgers, grilled sweet red peppers and a tasty salad.
|
nice sunset |
|
hit the spot |
That was our wonderful day without going anywhere. Sunshine, warm weather and friends stopping in for a visit, sounds perfect to us. Hope you had a great day too.
Thanks again for stopping in, ya'll come back now hear?

Nice sunrise! And a nice visit with friends too! Time does fly by....
ReplyDeleteLove the desert sunrises, sunsets, and meeting up with friends and fellow bloggers
DeleteGreat job on the windshield, nice of Paul to share about the kit. Sure a nice sunrise and sunset enjoyed your pic's. Glad to see you met up with Rene' and Jeanette, like you said a real super couple.
ReplyDeleteNever thought of fixing it myself, I am glad he told me about the kit too.
DeleteIt just worked out that they were close and able to stop in for a nice visit.
Jeanette and I are happy to have shared a part of the afternoon enjoying some good Colombian coffee and chatting about so many things. Good fun!
ReplyDeleteWe head out on Saturday but we know you two will get to enjoy several more Yuma sun-filled days. See you the next time we are close by.
It was a great visit, so nice to see you guys again. Travel safe and enjoy your bike rides wherever you go. Hope to see you guys again next time our paths cross.
DeleteAlways great to meet fellow Bloggers and travelers. Rene' and Jeanette are a great couple to pass a little time with as are you two.
ReplyDeleteIt sure is fun meeting up with fellow bloggers from different parts of the country.
DeleteBill's used that chip repair stuff... worked for him on our Scion. Sure beats replacing an expensive windshield. I'm just amazed at how often you meet fellow bloggers... what a treat!
ReplyDeleteHope that chip repair works, it does look much better, if not not a lot of money lost in trying. Only the last year or so we have met so many bloggers and is really a lot of fun. Associating real people to virtual ones.
DeleteNothing can be better. We bought a chip repair kit too, just in case. We haven't had to use it yet so hope it works. It sure is better than replacing the whole windshield. Enjoy those warm days.
ReplyDeleteIts worth a try anyway. I am thinking should pick up another kit for a spare.
DeleteHad no idea that rock chips could be repaired by ourselves. Last time I paid 90 Bucks.
ReplyDeleteEasy to do and much less expensive.
DeleteLooks like a good place to hang out and enjoy the warm weather.
ReplyDeleteSure is we love the southwest!
DeleteGood job on the windshield repair, just think a glass place would have charged you $75-100 to do the same job you did. I'm sure you have much better places to spend that money on! :c)
ReplyDeleteYes thats for sure Paul. Thanks again for the tip.
Deleteahhhh those Arizona sunsets! and rises .... great food as always ... the windshield still looks like it has a spot?! I don't understand .... I've had to have Homers windshield done twice and totally replaced once! ... drives me insane! I would love to be able to fix it .. If it ever happens again ... Noooooo ... love the oranges ;)
ReplyDeleteThis fix may help, hope so. We have had the other side replaced twice $1,600. a side.
DeleteThe oranges were amazing!
Great job on the windshield. One year when we were in mission, a guy down there had the same windshield kit. He fixed our windshield in a jiffy. And it stayed fixed as long as we had that car.
ReplyDeleteLove the sunset photos. Gorgeous.
Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteWe will see how it works for us, cheap fix if it does the job.
