Blue sunny skies, still a cool wind Silly Al's again and fun with our friends

Where are we today ?
 clic a pic to enlarge it
      Cooler again last night was 38F at 5 am and did not warm up much when the sun came out, but next to no wind. Went outside to go for a walkabout, but decided nope, colder than I like maybe later. So took a nice early morning drive about town and the desert here.
looking west sunrise on the mountains , nice
as the sun was rising to the east of us
        Ken and Shirley had not been to Silly Al's yet this year and are going with Tom and Deb , asked if we we would like to join them. Heck ya!  Love their amazing Pizza. This will be our 3rd visit this winter but do love their excellent Pizza.
     So we headed out for an early 11:30 am lunch. Nice no crowds we have our choice of tables , a Nice quiet one in the corner near the end of the bar.
       Our waitress (Marcia) was right there (the bar tender) took our orders and drinks were there right away, followed by our side salad to share, Beer only $2;50 for a large glass.
a nice large side salad we enjoyed to start only $3:75
     Marcia took our picture after serving our of food.

another awesome meat Lover's Pizza,
with Tomatoes on top leftovers of course.
     After here Suzie and I drove down to the NEW K&B Tools on Main street and bought a new lawn chair for me. My 29 year old chair finally decided to pack it in and I found a reasonable comfortable one that I liked to replace it. Forgot to take a picture of it will do that tomorrow if I remember.
     Then back home still a cool north west wind even thought it was 69F, I took a short drive about here catch a few pictures of the Saguaros that I love in this area.
     Back home puttered around for a bit, took some parts off my old chair and stored our Weber Q. Not needed tonight for supper and we plan to leave here Friday morning after our welding repair if all goes well.
     I found a sunny spot in front of our coach out of the wind and enjoyed my new chair and right back into my page turner once again. loving these skies and  fluffy clouds. The sun is warm the wind is cold, just the way the desert is, Sure beats what they are having back home, and the scenery we have here is what we love.
     If we could find a spot out of the wind and in the sun it would be perfect for happy hour, But no luck for 6 people to sit out comfortably. So Tom and Deb invited inside again to their spacious coach for some lively conversation. Always some information and tips to share and we always enjoy these social times when we can.
Happy hour inside out of the cool wind in their Stinger B
       Shortly after 5:30 (a longer Happy hour) because we all had a large lunch, we headed on home, to relax for the evening inside.
caught another nice sunset
         Supposed to be cooler tonight then and soon start to warm up again, We love the temperatures and warm sunny days, are mostly perfect, if we can stay out of the wind, And usually do.
       Another fun desert day here with friends and Silly Al's Pizza. Don;t think it gets to much better than this for us at least.
      Thanks for dropping on by.

  3. Another nice day for you, another pizza and topped off with another 'indoor' Happy Hour. Isn't that the same pizza you ordered last time? You've been to Al's over the years and it does offer a very extensive menu. What else can you recommend? We enjoyed their Mexican and the Combo the only times we've been there.

    1. Happy hour indoors because of the cold wind. I had a nice sunny spot out of the wind for me, but not enjoy for everyone. Trying the other pizzas over the years, this is by far our favourite go to pizza. They have other good looking food there as well, But we just can't resist having a pizza when we come.

  4. How much was that pizza? Yes a photo of the new chair por favor.

  6. It was a wonderful day, despite the wind. Lunch was fun, delicious, and the company excellent. We were happy to be able to host another Happy Hour inside out of the cold wind. A perfect way to spend a Wednesday.
