    Just another day in Paradise. Up early as usual and first walkabout at 6:30 this morning after coffee and computing for a while. Yes it is still dark out but in the campground there is a few lights that help mark the way. So nice and quiet at this time of day.
    Back home for another coffee chat with Suzie for a while discuss our day then another walkabout to catch a bit of the sunrise.
a bit of smoke in the air hid the sunrise
     Then a walkabout the desert for a while as well, sure do love the desert.
           Then at 9:30 it was getting warm so we decided a good time to pack away our Christmas decorations for another year. Got that all done and enjoyed  light early lunch, Soon time for the hot sun on our Patio. The awning was opened and our sunshade hooked up, helps keep everything a bit cooler. Did get up to 89f (31C) with only 10 % humidity so in the shade was very comfortable for most of the afternoon.
A perfect way to enjoy this weather, in the shade with a good book,
and my honey.
still pretty quiet here right now, but more rigs coming in every day
really love these clear blue cloudless skies
          About 2:30 we managed to hook up with daughter number one and enjoy a wonderful vide FaceTime chat with her, SIL, and 3 of our grandchildren . As we know they all had a very busy Christmas with families and sports for the grands, hockey for both boys and our granddaughter as well.. But we were able to finally connect. So nice to see them all there, smiling faces, thank you's for the Christmas gifts and family updates. Gotta love today's technology !
       Then shortly after 3 over to Bill and Patsy's for Happy hour. Bill is feeling a bit better today after being under the weather last night.
nice to chat for a bit in the shade and make a plan or 2
       Back home to whip up supper, Thawed couple of cod fillets , preheat our Weber Q and made a salad.
while the Weber was preheating we soon removed
our sunshade and rolled up the awning for the night
    Then I even had to begin another book as our fish was cooking on the grill.
another page turner
not long Fish is done
after yesterdays feast we really enjoyed and needed this light tasty meal
      Now what a better way to wind up a sunny desert day than with another desert sunset, we never get tired of these, hope you don't.
going down quickly
Gone !
         No plans today, just because we can relax , get some walking done a few chores, more quality reading. chat with a few people, enjoy Happy Hour, another tasty, light supper and of course a colorful desert sunset.  Finished posting this outside just before 8 pm and still about 64 f , really gotta love this weather!
         Want to thank y'all for taking the time to stop by for a peek and hope you enjoyed your day as well.

    1. It sure was, our sunshade is a sunscreen tarp we picked up at K&B in Quartzite, $15.00 easy to put up and down with one person. There is others you an get custom made for a hundred buck or more Shade Pro does a nice job.
      The fish, yummy!
