Where are we today ?
Was kinda cool last night great for sleeping, but we toasty warm. Up before the sunrise as usual and when it did come up we saw snow! (up in the mountains) lotsa snow. Good place for it to be. What a way to end the year with a snow fall. Perfect next year (tomorrow) will be much warmer and its all uphill from there.

Got a few walkabouts done today and picked up a few groceries. Too windy to read outside so relaxed for a bit and actually were reading inside and a knock on the door. It was a fellow Blogger Allen of Allen and Lolita. Met them last year at Desert Pools resort here in DHS. They were supposed to arrive today at a resort around the corner but their trailer is still in Mountain Lakes California. Much higher elevation, covered in snow, so they could not move it today. Just stopped in to say hi and will be here probably tomorrow and we will visit.
A couple more walkabouts and reading then fire up our Weber Q. Gonna grill a cornish hen and add that to a tasty salad for supper.

Next to go to the clubhouse for a New Years Eve Party, snacks , DJ dancing etc. and drop the Ball at 9 pm with Times Square at 9 pm in New York. Sounds perfect for us. BUT. The DJ was sitting with his female friend, the music was recorded and nothing that we recognized, nobody dancing, some play cards, and the clubhouse was very cold.. hmm. Three years ago we had one heck of a new years party here, great DJ dancing the place was packed. Things change.....
May as well go home we can have more fun there. So thats what we did. We enjoyed the Times square party right here in the comfort of our own home, it was one of the best new years eve's we have had.
Now if you are a Blogger and and RV'er and are in Quartzsite this January need to check this out. Jeri from "Just Wanderin'" suggested a BLOGGER-FEST at Q. Sounds like a great idea looking forward to it hope you can make it.
Thanks y'all for stopping in today and want to wish each and every one of you a very Happy New Year. May it be the most exciting year of our lives so far, it only gets better every day.

Check out the interactive map below to see where we have been this Winter.
We are doing the same thing as you except we skipped the party altogether. Watched the ball dropped surfing the channels. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteWe thought we would check it out and least we got out for a walk.
DeleteHappy New Year George! Keep that snow up in the mountains!
ReplyDeleteThats the plan, it's plenty close enough right there.
DeleteI can hardly wait for the sun to come up to see if the Superstitions are snow covered. We did see that one year we were here. Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteIt is a kind of cool sight, as long as it stays up there don't mind.
DeleteHappy new year. Snow is nice as long as it melts quickly.
ReplyDeleteThanks I like it better in the distance.
DeletePretty shot of the mountains George.
ReplyDeleteThanks Larry, its kind of mystical!
DeleteKathy and I are wishing you and Suzie a Safe and Happy New Year with lots of fun things coming your way.
ReplyDeleteAfter we left for Florida our Countdown counter went on the fritz so I just took it off. Looks like your's did the same and reset to next New Years.
Be Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
Same to you guys as well all the best in the new Year.
DeleteI see our counter still the same, back in Ontario April 15th 103 days is correct.
Snow.... brrrrr! Even if it is on the mountains, it looks cold!
ReplyDeleteYep its much colder up there.
DeleteHappy New Year and looking forward to more sunny, warm weather soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rick and Paulette, we are looking forward to that same weather too, its gonna be a great year!
DeleteHappy Happy New Year George and Suzie from the Wood Clan! So nice to have you as friends!
ReplyDeleteThanks Guys all the best to you as well so glad we met you in person.
DeleteThat is an awesome photo of the two of you!
ReplyDeleteWe will see you at the party! Happy New Year!
Thanks !
DeleteLooking forward to finally meeting you.
Happy New Year George, look forward to following your adventures in the new year!
ReplyDeleteThanks and glad to have you along.
DeleteHappy New Year. I hope the blogger fest will become an annual event, doesn't look like I'[ll be moving for awhile.
ReplyDeleteThat would be nice to get together every year, guess we will have to wait and see. Too bad you can't make it this year.
DeleteHappy New Year you two! I opened my curtains for the first time in almost five days. The sun is feeling good coming through the window. Later this afternoon (after the football game) I'll go for a walk then go outside and hook the hose back up. Glad you can get back outside to read. Sounds like the party at the club house was a dud.
ReplyDeleteThe sunshine is wonderful, stop by anytime.
DeleteYes the party was a dud.
All the very best wishes for a great 2015, going forward.
ReplyDeleteThe temperatures will once again rise and the summer type clothing will once again see the light of day. It sure has been unseasonably cool in the desert though.
Yes it will be another wonderful year.
DeleteAn warming up very quickly for you.
Love that photo of the two of you. Wow! Feliz Ano Nuevo.
ReplyDeleteThanks Contessa and Feliz Ano Nuevo.
DeleteI hate being cold ! I spent the entire day yesterday on the couch under a quilt with BOTH of my Mr. Heater's going. Back in the 70's soon though. Can't wait.
ReplyDeleteWe don't like the cold either, but its much nicer today
DeleteHAPPY NEW YEAR George and Suzie, all the best from Pat, Clemson and I. To bad about the party, we had a good time at Rock Glen so I think we will try next new years there too. Take care and see you both in the spring.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bill glad you had a great time, well always do at Rock Glen. Never know what we will tun into on the road. Not a big deal we actually enjoy staying home, just the two of us. Couple years ago the party here was amazing!
