No rain a good thing, but a cold and windy day, final USA happy hour with good friends.

Where are we today ?

       The rain has finally stopped and the weather cooled down. But a windy overcast day, 36F at 5 am and stayed about the same all day long, But no problem we are still toasty warm inside. A short very cold walkabout this morning, first day for my winter jacket.
        Now because of this cooler weather another pot of soup sounds like a good idea. So I boiled up the bones from our turkey breast we cooked the other day to make a tasty broth for some Turkey Barley soup. Let that simmer for a couple of hours then a quick check out a couple stores in town and the new very nice laudramat. It is much better than the aging one that they closed down last spring. All brand new machines front loaders (much more money of course ) and a new system where you get a card and load money on it too use for washing and drying. Saw Patsy and Bill there doing their stuff and chatted with them for a bit, then back home to finish up the soup, enjoyed soup for lunch (more leftovers) and put a pork loin roast in our antique slow cooker. Did not feel like setting up our Weber Q with this cold and wind. And some snow fluffies off and on most of the day, even a few minutes of sunshine, did not warm things up though.

turkey barely soup

hey this stoup was very tasty almost a stew

          After lunch I had to move our satellite dish, with the wind today tree branches were getting in the way of our signal. Nice thing about the desert, no buildings, no trees, clear blue sunny skies and the mountains. Then a refreshing walkabout the campground, just bundled up and get some fresh air and exercise. Checked out the clubhouse, very nice a couple of groups in there playing pool, table tennis and some video games as well. They also have a small library as well.
         Now to enjoy reading our e books, getting right into more page turners. Meanwhile smelling our pork roast cooking away gonna tasty wonderful as usual.

these would be pretty cool on the lake in the summer           

this clubhouse is very nice as well, but busy today

        A very nice playground for the kids and amazing new mini golf course that was finished this year. Wish the weather was better.

         At 3 pm Bill and Patsy joined us for Happy Hour, our last one for a while, they are heading on out in the morning. Always new topics to chat about and share stories.

          They headed on home and was time for supper . Our pork loin roast done to perfection, so whipped up a salad and enjoyed this tasty fall apart roast with sone apple sauce and carrots that cooked carrots right in there .

this sure hit the spot tonight
and more leftovers again

          After supper a walk by the creek, get rid of the garbage and back home to call it a night, Gonna get cold again so disconnect our water hose, just because. so it does not freeze.

      We actually had a very nice day here, good food, great company and a fun Happy hour with our friends.
        Now to kick back and enjoy a nice quiet evening warm and cozy by our blue flame heater. Watching a movie  on the tube.
        Thanks for taking the time to stop on by, hope your day was warmer than ours was.
