We toasted in the New Year with sparkling cider, and hugged and kissed everyone here, What a great time we had and a reasonable time for us old folks.We were home by 10:20 pm and in bed by 11, Arizona time, perfect !
This morning I slept in until 5:15 am. Wow this is amazing, mind you we did not get to bed until 11 last night, unheard of for us !
Had a bit of rain overnight again. We have ever seen this much rain in the ten plus years we have been coming the southwest. But heck not a problem, sure beats the cold frost, snowy weather they having back home, Yup we love this.

more water this morning
the spring desert flowers will be amazing! |
At 7 am I took some turkey bones from the freezer to boil for a tasty broth for soup. more Turkey noodle soup. (make room in our freezer as well). End up with a huge pot to share with Melinda, Gerry, Patsy and Bill , and still more for us as well.

Then we enjoyed a very warm/hot sunny afternoon enjoying our e-readers and took a few minutes to clear up the headlights on our car and motorhome.

Where have we been this Winter
Happy New Year George and Susie! Looks like a fun time ringing in the new year! And a great way to get 2017 started!
ReplyDeleteThanks guys to sure was a fun couple days.
DeleteCrikey .... you sure had a great time, aye?? Mum and Dad stayed up till midnight this year. First time for years. I took myself ff to bed early. I couldn't stay awake. I hope 2017 is a great year for you both. I wouldn't mind a bit of that turkey broth to throw over my kibble.
ReplyDeleteWe sure had a wonderful time Charlie, glad we were able to celebrate the New year early, hard to stay up till midnight anymore. The turkey broth on you kibble would sure be tasty.
DeleteLooks like you had lots of fun for the last couple of days.
ReplyDeleteWishing you both along with the rest of the gang a Safe and Happy New Year.
It's about time.
Thanks we always have fun.
DeleteLooks like a great New Year's party. On to the next one for you. Here's hoping the sun returns and stays.
ReplyDeleteIt was a fun New Years party, and the sunshine is wonderful almost every day.
DeleteIt was a great quiet New Years Day here, nice to have nothing to do for a day.
ReplyDeleteWe love those kind of days the more the better.
DeleteWhat a great idea to ring in the new year with the New York ball and not have to stay up for two more hours. Karaoke looks like a very fun way to spend the evening and have the time pass quickly.
ReplyDeleteBeing out west gives us the opportunity to ring in the New Year early. The Karaoke was a very nice way to celebrate the new year's eve.
DeleteHappy new year George and Susie. May the new year bring you health and happiness.
ReplyDeleteThanks Peter , same to you and Sheilah .
DeleteLooks like a great way to ring in the new year! There is an old school in my area called Pilot Knob, I always thought it was an interesting name, I never thought there'd be be another place with that name! Happy New Year from snowy cold Alberta!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a nice area in southern California , dry desert temps and very mild winter temperatures for the winter months .
DeleteThanks Jenn thanks for stopping in and keep warm, there.
Hi George. Was trying to make out what you used to work on the headlights but could not make it out. What was it?.
ReplyDeletePaul.
I bought it at Walmart about $10. worked pretty good, and fast, Good for a few moths then dow again takes maybe 10 minutes and they are much better.
DeleteWhat fun!!!! Nothing better than bringing in the new year with friends!!! Glad you all had fun. It's been raining here all day!! We are now having flash floods. Awful weather!!
ReplyDeleteIt was a great day, no floods here right now,. just enjoying this mild weather.
