At about 4:30 Jim, Barb and Daisy wandered over with a cocktail and joined us. It sounds like their Alaska adventure is really coming together...very excited for them, wish we could do it again! Since they will be coming up to the Victoria/Vancouver area, we are looking forward to showing them around our bit of paradise. Red and Pam also ventured over for a quick visit and a short while later, everyone headed home for dinner.
At 7:00 we went over to Earl and Allison's for an evening of Rummikub. We played six games...we all won one each and then the guys each won another, so they were the big winners of the night!
Monday morning Steve made a trip into town to run a couple of errands...propane and some more supplies for another maintenance job on the trailer. While he was gone, I showered and cleaned up inside and then went over to take Daisy out for a walk. Jim and Barb, along with Dino and Lisa, have gone on a day trip to see Joshua Tree National Park.
Back home, Steve replaced the old trim insert along the fifth-wheel overhang that was pulling away from the trim...
This was his easiest repair so far this season...
As predicted, the wind started late morning...and it was a very gusty afternoon. Since the wind was coming from the north/northwest, we managed to sit outside (reading and crocheting) with the awning and sunshade up, but eventually, the gusts just got a little too strong and we took the shade down and put the awning in.
Steve made another run into town later in the afternoon with Red this time. And I spent my afternoon between crocheting and taking Daisy out...and looking in on Moose and Journey (Lisa and Dino's cats).
At 4:00 Red and Pam came over and we had happy hour inside...Jim and Barb also joined us once they got home from their day trip.
Steve grilled burgers on the barbecue for dinner...and then we settled in for an evening of TV. Tomorrow is supposed to be another windy day. Hopefully it dies down like it did late this afternoon so that the wind is not a problem with the wiener roast Red and Pam are planning...three RV-Dreamer couples will be arriving. Lee and Tracey and Greg and Cori are returning, along with Bill and Kelly, their first time to Quartzsite...more RV-Dreamers to meet!

Harry and Vicki's rig...
Rick's rig in the foreground...we were a little concerned about his awning being left out while he went to Vegas for the day...Steve made another run into town later in the afternoon with Red this time.
