💕A Happy Valentine's Day especially to my 💘sweetie💘 and all our family and friends out there💕
Cooler and overcast today but no problem we have plans to keep us busy. First of a nice walkabout the resort to check it all out. No too big and relatively small sights . But room for lots of large rigs. We have been in some with much smaller sites, after all a campground with full hookups and 3 nights free and did I mention free wifi at out site as well.They have lotsa activities and great facilities but we don't much care about them anyway.

Now being as we have lotsa time we headed over to check out
Martha's Gardens (date Farm) lots of dates and date products. No we did not have a date shake, had one a few years ago , very tasty but too rich and filling for us. We checked out the store and watched an interesting video on how they farm and raise dates from these beautiful Date Palm trees.

There it is, we had a fun morning getting done what we wanted, home by 12 o'clock. Now a relaxing afternoon at home. Still overcast and cool with a light drizzle off and on, but that's ok too. We have some research to do, taking advantage of the free wifi. Also reading to enjoy as well as full hookups.
We still prefer dry camping in the desert the wide open spaces and amazing views.
The rest of the day was still cool overcast and drizzly a bit off an on. No supper tonight after our lunch a bit later we will share some popcorn and an apple with a movie or the olympics on the tube, more that enough to finish up our day.
Thanks for following along and hope you had a great Valentines' Day no matter what you did or where you are. Ours was perfect !
