New Year's Day and just enjoying the weather and time with my sweetie.

Where are we today ? 
clic a pic to enlarge it.
      Hey it's a band new Year 2018!  wow how did that happen? Who would have ever thought back in the 1960's that we would actually be around to see this? It just seemed so far in the future.
      But here it is and we are in one of the nicest places in North America (IMHO) Sunshine every day and very warm winter weather.
      No  exciting sunrise this morning but I still got my walkabouts done.
Did I get taller this year what ya think?
still quite here but the rv's are beginning to arrive according
 to Kathy in the office,lots of reservations
      On one of my walkabouts said so long to Bill, Dee and Doug the pug, they heading out this morning, Safe travels guys and looking forward to catching up with you again in the future.
and away they go
nice green grass here is irrigated so nice to see in the desert.
        Seeing as it is New Years day and the weather is excellent we decided to treat ourselves to a bacon and egg breakfast with home fried potatoes. Suzie's favourite. In my restaurant I cooked a few hundred of these every week.
nice to use our grill mat outside , sure does a wonderful job
and no mess inside
this is a brunch we love on occasion
sure hit the spot
       Got this done then puttered around for a while and I did a short tour around the desert  behind us just because I can and  we are here. A few more walkabouts is always nice as well.
love this area in the square, I call it
    Then to enjoy a relaxing afternoon buried in out page turner  books in the shade, Did actually get to 80F (26C) but again with no breeze and not humid was an excellent day
we can enjoy it here no problem
     Eventually was time for me to begin whipping up supper, And tonight Suzie's choice again Fettuccini Alfredo with large sea scallops and garlic shrimp with a small salad and garlic cheese bread I made. This was all cooked inside because I have not found a way too cook pasta on our Weber Q yet.
supper just about done and the best sunset picture I could get today
perfect scallops and shrimp melt in your mouth
and the rest just rounded it off.
     What a great way to begin a brand new year. Chat with a few people, enjoying the very nice warm weather, and a couple of tasty meals all in one day. Her we are outside sill at 7:15 pm reading a posting this blog 63F (17C) yup we can suffer with this weather for sure.
    Thanks for stopping by and hope your New Years day was a wonderful one as well.

  2. Too much fog to catch the 2018 sunrise, but did you catch the full moon rise? What a way to start off the year!
    Did not see the breakfast potatoes in your recipes, they look good. Happy New Year!

  4. Happy New Year to you and Suzie. That looks like excellent food all day long. If you haven't found a way to cook something on the Weber then it can't be done! Keep on enjoying the southwest, just because you can.
