Just another great nights sleep , milder again as well it 58 F at 4 am but never seemed to get much warmer all day.Happy Valentine's Day Suzie because she loves Chocolates and Roses |
a tiny Rose plant our wedding was all about Roses |
Right after she got up I headed into town at 6:15 to pick up some needed groceries, at Fry's then, Alberstons and some deals at Walmart. Nice at this time day no crowds and very little traffic. I was home shortly after 8 am.
Then about 9:30 Suzie and I headed out on the rainy day, she actually wanted to do some shopping! First stop at Sketcher's outlets in Yuma for a pair of shoes she has been wanting for a long time. At home in Canada there at $89.99 a pair. well she found them here on sale second pair half price so she got 2 pair for $80.00 US ($106. CDN) still an awesome deal now she finally has them, so very comfortable. Well not quite yet they had to order her size in and will be here in the campground in a week. She has had one pair for many years and really loved them. So if she wants good comfortable shoes they are worth it ?this is a very nice store lots of selctions |
Now because it is Valentines Day we thought a treat for lunch. At The Chicken (used to be Chicken on the Run). Wow love their excellent broasted chicken and found they had moved 500 yards down the road to a much bigger place at
right out front their Chicken |
our dining room nice and quiet |
We had our food cooked to order and were finished eating by 12 noon. We each got the 3 piece chicken with 2 sides. Each meal $7.99. Now they do have a very extensive menu from burgers, to fish , Ruebens etc, and a full breakfast menu as well Open 6 am till 8 pm fast friendly service Good as always.
mine with fries and baked beans |
Suzie fries and coleslaw |
Back home shortly after 12:30, still raining so a quiet peaceful most of the rest of the day relaxing and reading inside.
Then just before 4 pm we got a bit of sunshine, and temps got to 65 F. So outside we go with our chairs to read for a bit then Kim and Ken walked on by and joined us for Happy Hour. Compared our days and shared stories of our travels. Always fun to chat with these guys. And then just after 5 pm the skies darkened and wind picked up, and began a light rain again. Ok, that's it. At least we did enjoy a nice hour or so outside. They headed home and we back inside.
it was a nice time outside for a while |
nice to see Kim and Ken dropping by for HH and compare notes |
then the skies darkened and winds picked up |
No supper tonight needed today just a light snack of some popcorn and share an apple while watching a movie or something on the tube to wind down our day.
We enjoyed our wonderful Valentine's Day here together as we do every day.
Thanks for dropping on by and hope you're day was a good one as well.

ReplyDeleteIt was actually a very nice day Jeff , always something to keep us busy on a rainy day, The dinner and th movies was fun too.
DeleteHappy Valentine's Day! Nice looking lunch. Actually I think Suzie did very well on the shoes. That's even a good price for ONE pair of good shoes and to get two, that's just amazing. We didn't see any sun today, only clouds and rain, rain, rain and more rain.
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb , she thought is was a good deal as well, don't see this very often. We just got a bit of sun enough to let the rain stop and we could sot outside for an hour.
DeleteWell you done really good George. I love those mini roses I had all different colors at one time. Those outlet stores are the best.
ReplyDeleteThank Deb , Suzie loves the Roses too, We had a lot of roses at our house for a while. This outlet store was a very good one.

Thanks Nancy I try to keep the Mr's happy and it pays off big time. It was not real bad here just all day long. This broasted chicken is awesome we love it.
DeleteGreat job on Valentines day George. It is so true, when you say, "That everyday we have together is special." I gather we crossed paths yesterday. Was at Sketchers just after lunch. Too bad I missed you.
