Where are we today ?
cisi on a pic to enlarge it
We are really enjoying this wonder desert dirt we call home for the winter months. Early morning walkabouts the desert gives us some amazing desert sunrises.

almost every day a sunrise like this |
When Suzie got up our water pump was not working again! Hmm back to the drawing board again. Checking out the issue looks like another bad wire connection. I figured out that the pressure regulator connections were not good. So with my old pump that we replace in 2009 i was able to replace that part and now all seems to working perfectly. We will see, lets give it time.

replaced this part |
|
now works great |
|
our old spare pump does not need this part to work for what we use it for |
After lunch I went down to Tyson Wells to find a new apron for me that Gerry and Melinda saw the other day. Need a new one after over 20 years with my old dirty one.

cool bicycle here with a gas motor |
One of the nice things about hanging out with these 3 other couples is that we all have our own space pretty well every day. We do what we want and enjoy the great weather here, so do our own thing and get together for a social (happy hour) at about 3 pm every day. We can all do what works for us and have our space. Naps, reading and walkabouts on or own or with each other.

Tuckr loves his cjaot/table |
I check out Tyson Wells and found a new apron. Souvenir of Quartzsite, sure saves my clothes.

me and my are apron |

This is Quartzite in the middle of nowhere |
The other day I was at the Roadrunner Market in town and picked up this Rib Eye steak on special. Now it has been a very long time the since we had a steak . But heck for .94 cents I could not turn it down.
|
tonight's supper |
Around 3 pm, our usual happy hour (social time) to connect with our friends here. Share our stories and a few laughs.
Then home to whip up supper, baked potato , fresh mushrooms and onions in foil and a very tasty Rib eye steak done to perfection and so tender . What a rare teat we had.
|
ok that was it for our day |
Once again thanks for stopping on by.
Where have we been this Winter
What a deal you got on those ribeye steaks!! I bet that was a tasty meal!!
ReplyDeleteCan't turn down a deal like that, was very tasty.
DeleteThe middle of nowhere is so perfect for that place.
ReplyDeleteI look for those "manager" specials too.
Yes this is in the middle of nowhere, but perfect for the winter for us. There is some good deals to be had if you take the time to look.
DeleteWhat a deal on the rib eye steak. We had a rib steak last night but certainly paid more than you did. However, not so bad when you consider we split it and Buck got the bone!
ReplyDeleteWe split this steal as well. But when Buck got the bone that was a bonus too.
DeleteNice apron, George. Never owned one myself, but I rarely cook either.
ReplyDeleteThanks Doug, I have ruined too many clothes by not wearing one, rarely had to in the restaurant.
DeleteI guess you got your money's worth out of that old apron. 20 years? Bet it could stand up by itself...
ReplyDeleteThe old one was not coming clean anymore so sure did get my money's worth out it.
DeleteSometimes we have to fix things two or three times! Good for you for sticking with the problem. At least there are lots of new ones available near you if you do eventually need one. Our 2005 motorhome is on it's third water pump.
ReplyDeleteLots available here that's for sure. I like to see if I can fix things before I replace them.
DeleteThis is still the second pimp on our 18 year old coach
You have a pimp??? Thanks for the chuckle.
DeleteNo pimp it is a pump !
DeleteVery cool apron. I can't believe that you kept that old pump all these years.....and 94 cents!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank I needed a new one and finally found one I liked. We use to old water pump for filling our fresh water tank when we are boondocking it has come in handy quite a few times. .94 cents for steak dinner of 2 was awesome.
