 clic a pic to enlarge it
Wishing all our families and friends a very Happy and Healthy New Year,
Hard to believe it is 2019 already 
        Much warmer last night for sleeping and next to no wind we had an excellent sleep. Being New Year's Eve day I wanted to pickup a few supplies in Yuma and as always headed out early, it was 7:45 should have left at 7:30 driving into the rising sun. No problem this time, Walmart and as usual in and out quickly and back home by 9 am.
Leaving the campground the sun is rising looks wonderful
on I-8 eastbound more nice sunrise
         We enjoyed a light lunch then I went for a short drive down the road, some more exploring, never know what I will come across. Then a light rain began being overcast and all a much cooler day especially with no sunshine. So relax inside in my new recliner, very comfortable for reading, much better than the old one.
this old deserted Motel from long ago
yup it is done and just left like so many other places here in the desert
probably was nice in its day
this the road I cruised not far from the campground 
another deserted building too
even this deserted inspection station 
new one on the other side heading westbound
      Below is the views we had most of the day , not great for relaxing outside though did get a few walkabouts done, only a couple of miles today.
another good author I enjoy
          For supper tonight a small pork rib eye roast on our grill mat with a salad. Hit the spot. This afternoon we both got some nice reading time done. I finished my last one by Wendy Corsi Staub very interesting about a group of women bloggers with breast cancer and of course an interesting plot of whodunit murders. Now started another book by Robert Crais another author I enjoy this one is Hostage. Don't think the temperature got above 54F so not a great day for hanging around out side.
      Soon time to begin supper on our Weber Q tonight a tasty pork ribeye roast to go with our salad
about 25 minutes done to perfection 145F internal temp
The salad Pork roast and homemade applesauce
Suzie's dad had made
      Then for New Years Eve over to Rob and Pat's with the rest of our Rock Glen Resort friends from Ontario. For some early new Year's eve fun.
All 8 of us here, Loree, Ron, Suzie, Pat, Rob. Me
and Patsy and Bill
Patsy getting set up for a group shot
then I mixed up a treat Macadamia and Tequila
but I guess too much Tequila, no matter  was tasty
         Ron and Loree headed home and the 6 of us played a card game wizard, a fun game, but by shortly after 9 pm I am falling asleep as usual so we finished the game and back home. wrapped up this posting and soon to Bed, Missing the new years eve fun but we have a great time with friends anyway.
Wizard is a fun card game they taught me
     That was out New Years Eve and a great one it was with good friends. Hope y"all had a wonderful New Years eve as well and all the best for 2019.
      Thanks for dropping on by. good night.
