Snowbirds?

Can we be called snowbirds if we’re not running away from the snow? We headed south on the 11th of January, spending a couple of days in Pismo Beach catching up with all our dear friends down there. Christine & Randy hosted a dinner on Saturday for 12 of us and I ended up the weekend making biscuits and gravy in the BAM (big-ass motorhome) for that same 12 people on Sunday morning! Too much fun! How is it that the kids get older but we don't? Hmmm?

We loved seeing Karyn’s new Aussie puppy, Kaci. It brings back so many memories of our Kala.










We’re currently in Yuma and are having a really fun time with our neighbors. We’ve been invited to the Moose Lodge twice for food, cocktails and dancing. Woo-hoo! That was fun!

We spent one afternoon in Los Algodones, Mexico. Love the food across the border! It’s getting a lot more difficult to cross the border. As of tomorrow you will have to have a passport. Many of the snowbirds here cross the border for their dental, optical and pharmacy needs. Some of this group wouldn’t go when we went because the day before it was taking people over 2 hours in line to get back across the border. We solved that by staying until dark and then we were across in about 30 minutes.


I bought myself a new bike last week and I love it. It’s easy to ride and get on/off. It’s called a comfort bike! Is that a nice way of calling it an old person’s bike?
The second time I got to ride it I got a flat! Ugh!
