Here we are up and at it at the Hot Springs LTVA in California. After another good sleep then I got a nice walkabout around the area again enjoying a wonderful desert sunrise in southern California. Down by the canal and around the Hot Springs by the lagoon. Always love the views we have enjoyed here over the years. And I hope to get over there for a soak and shower when the weather gets a bit warmer. Never did get over 54F on a cloudy drizzly day. I met a nice young fellow there Jose. He asked where I was from. Ontario Canada I said. He replied I am from Ontario too (California). He was out just taking a tour and wanting to explore some of this amazing country, Arizona , Texas down along the gulf coast and into Florida. Safe travels Jose. |
| a nice sunrise to start our day then downhill from there weather wise |
Back home puttered around for a bit and enjoyed a nice light lunch. then it was overcast and drizzling. So took some time going through my photos and purging them for a couple of hours and backed up my Mac Book with the time machine.Then a drive around this area still lots of very nice private sites here that look wonderful.

No visible sunset tonight though I know it was out there somewhere.
All in all a very nice comfortable day getting things done inside, We need days like this to get these things taken care of.
Thanks for dropping by and hope you enjoyed your day no matter the weather.

Where have we been this Winter?
A chilly damp morning would seem to be a good time to soak in the hot springs. Did you check the temperature of the spring? It can be quite hot, or not ... Dinner looks great, was the ham cooked in the Weber?
ReplyDeleteIt was pretty hot could see the steam rising. Don't like the cold weather enough to soak in the hot spring. I prefer the warmer weather and sunshine.
DeleteDinner very tasty the ham was cooked in the oven today, the extra warmth inside was nice.
We had a very overcast day today and just a little bit ago it poured but seems to have stopped. Tomorrow another mid 50's day.
ReplyDeleteThat little pond you showed lookd like the place my friend kind of hid out in this summer as she had to stay there until all her paper work was done to make the Q her home base and become a resident of AZ. I felt so bad for her and her poor pups in that heat.
We just had a steady drizzle most of the day that did nit want to stop.
DeleteThis pond area is nice at least lotsa shade and cooling waters., Still would hot in the summer for your friend.
That ham looked great. One of the things I miss because of the size of them , they are just too much for me. It will be interesting to see the different meals you will make from it. Going to have to add to the places to see is the hot springs. Have seen you stayed there before, but todays pictures looked very interesting.
ReplyDeleteWe have been here almost every year for the last 12 always enjoy it here and meeting up with good friends.
DeleteI made it to Indio. Yup ... we've got rain here too. That ham looks amazing!! I'm going to try that on my barbecue!!
ReplyDeleteNow you will be tight into the thick of things again. I guess the rain was needed, not problem here. I did this ham in our oven today, just because we were inside all day anyway.
DeleteBeautiful sunrise, clouds always make it so pretty. Ham looks absolutely wonderful. Sometimes those inside days are nice, like you used it to purge and backup. When it's nice outside you feel guilty for being inside doing things like that.
ReplyDeleteThanks it was nice here, The ham was and is excellent. We are always outside whenever we can be to enjoy the fresh air that we enjoy so much. The inside days are rare and we make good use of them
DeleteThe rain was everywhere but not much of it. An inside day mostly.
ReplyDeleteIt will soon warm up again and we can all get back outside!
Yes it pretty well was, and we had a very productive inside day too.
DeleteRain here too in Desert Hot Springs yesterday afternoon and steady rain early Sunday morning.Another movie day I guess. I know that your soup will be great. Makes me hungry.😊
ReplyDeleteRain pretty well everywhere around here at lest no snow. good weather for some soup.
DeleteWe cooked a ham for Christmas dinner this year. Like you we had lots of left overs. We used some of them for breakfast with fried ham and eggs. When next I get a ham like that I will buy it where I can ask a butcher to cut it in half for me.
ReplyDeleteI love the water area there, that is so inviting looking.
Enjoy your time in Holtville George.
It is a lot of eating but will make use of a lot of it and them freeze some, Makes good lunch sandwiches for Suzie.
DeleteWe do enjoy this area and the pond is wonderful , but the ht springs are always busy here though.
Ham and bean soup sounds delicious! Even on dreary days your life is awesome!
ReplyDeleteThanks Peter the ham was excellent and love our Ham Bean soup too.
DeleteEvery day we can enjoy this amazing lifestyle is awesome.
After a cool and damp day we appreciate the warm and sunny days even more. No need to rub it in, but your food always looks yummy and I just know it tastes wonderful. Looks like an interesting spot you are at but you know the area so well that its no surprise to see you there parked. Enjoy the time.
ReplyDeleteYes Marlene a cool dam day is great once in a while and does help us appreciate the warmer ones even more. This is a spot we enjoy here with our friends for a while just something about it that grabs us like other places we go to in our travels.
DeleteNice that you were able to ham it up with inside tasks. :cD
ReplyDeleteThanks Hamming it up for a cool rainy day worked well for us.Getting things taken care if inside.
