Relaxing, enjoying this awesome weather, and meeting some blog followers


Where are we today ?

    Just another great nights sleep, cool overnight and some windows open, we toasty warm inside and love the fresh cool air.
     First thing this morning I put our chicken bones from last nights BBQ'chicken onto boil for a tasty chicken broth for todays soup.
     While this was going on I made a quit trip to Roswell to pick a few needed veggies, and found some nice food things we cannot get in other places. Extra hot habernero sauce  and fresh store made chirozo. made my day!
on my way back at 9;30 am stopped by the visitor centre,
but not open, oh pooh
nice scenery here though 
     Back home to finish up our soup for lunch . Always  a hearty stoup. so thick and tasty.
a few more lunches from this stoup
my lunch today sure hit the spot
       After lunch I went to checkout this nice walking wetlands trail, so peaceful and quiet here.
a nice easy walking trail through the wetlands, only a 1/2
mile but better than nothing
and a relaxing walk
 
3 nice viewing platforms along there as well
       Now back home to enjoy our e-readers in the shade for a while, a very comfortable 82 f and not humid sure worked for us. I took the time  to get a nice long hot shower at the restrooms and sure felt wonderful.
Love these cloudless blue sunny skies
       While enjoy this wonderful warm, weather in the shade the local roadrunner dropped by for a visit, love watching these guys.
almost on our patio, just checking us out
       Next thing we hear a meow under our coach! We had another visitor, a very pretty siamese cat. He has a tag so is not wild , He/ she checked us out and then on its way. Not gonna feed it.
        One thing we learned years ago if you want to meet people and get fresh air, sit outside! Not many people will come knocking on your door to meet you.
nice looking cat
      Then about 3 pm Brenda and Len stopped by to join us for "Happy Hour" I chatted with them earlier today when they were sitting outside, Noticed the Alberta Canada licence plates and just stopped to say hi. First thing Brenda said " I know you" huh? They have been following our blog now for 6 years, don't comment and don't blog and have followed many other rv bloggers. as well. One couple they have met was Katie and Brad The Rogue less Travelled  ( new full timers) back in Canada.
      Well heck this is another amazing couple of full-time rver's,  not bloggers but really super people. They read a lot of blogs though, We chatted for a happy hour or 2 and the conversation just kept flowing, and as happens we learned more tips of places to explore. So nice to share information with each other.
Len and Brenda
        Getting a bit chilly and time for supper they headed on home and we began whipping up supper.
        Grilled a couple of swordfish steaks on our Weber Q 100 tonight and they were amazing as usual, for the recipe you can click HERE or my recipe blog top right side bar. Of course added our salad to go with it.
love these swordfish steaks
excellent meal so tasty and healthy too
then a wonderful sunset to wind top another perfect day
      We had a wonderful relaxing day enjoying this awesome weather, hope y'all had a great one too.
      Really like that you are coming right along on our journey with us too.

  5. Glad you had an opportunity to spend time with Brenda & Len, two great people. They are the ones that told us we needed a battery monitor, which we now have and what a difference it has made. Great folks and we hope to see them again in the future somewhere down the road. And George, thanks for the mention.
