Back in Quartzsite

We are back at the cabin to pack up the rest of our stuff and finish a couple more projects around the neighborhood.
We did squeeze in a short visit with Jan and Ted in Havasu City and got in on an early birthday celebration for Maggie.


Now here are 2 tarts(aka Maggie and Anita) with 1 very nice torte (aka birthdaycake)

Always Time for a Little More Play

We had just a little more time left in San Diego so after a nice paddle around Mission Bay on the kayaks it was off for a quick round of golf at Mission Bay Golf Course.


Scarey HUH ? And tomorrow it's on to Vegas to drop Ry off for his rendevous with some buds from Minnesota (now that is scarey!)

"Hot Curl"

Unfortuneately Steph had to leave early (school, work and Oh yeah Dr. appointments....I am going to be a grandma!)
I hope we didn't wear her out but we weren't done being tourists yet.
Jim, Chris , Ry, John and I headed for Balboa Park. A great place near the San Diego Zoo.
It was the former site of the 1915-16 Panama-California Exposition and now filled with art galleries and museums like the Areospace museum and San Diego Hall of Champions where I snapped this shot of the guys with "Hot Curl"

The USS Midway

So much to see ; so little time. After brunch in Old town San Diego with Cousin Jenny and friend Patrick the whole gang headed for a tour of the The USS Midway.


It was so big but such small doorways!
Of course if you want to get 4 guys to sit down and listen just have someone explain how you catapult huge planes off a moving deck of a ship.


At the same time we were exploring this modern warship there were pirates fighting off our starboard bow.

The Wedding

Josh and Sandy Kinghorn !!!


The stage was set.... Beautiful day at the Southwestern Yacht Club ,friends and family gathered and the deed was done.

Let the Party Begin

Ry and Steph arrived this morning and we wasted no time taking in the sites.

We started st Seaport Village, then on to the Del Coronado Hotel


With a quick stop back at the RV Park to grab Jim , Chris and the pups we were off to John's sister Carole's home and a fun evening shooting pool ,a BBQ and laughing...lots and lots of laughing.(Pool sharks we are NOT)
This was the first time we had seen Carole and Fred's home since the remodel( a new kitchen that she really deserved!


and a family room to die for.

Back in San Diego... There Must Be a Celebration!!!

This time it is the wedding of Josh ( John's son) and Sandy (our soon-to-be-daughter-in-law) this coming Saturday.
We have set up camp once again on Mission Bay but this time Jim and Chris are parked next door (I sense some impending yakking)


It should be a ful week. Friday Ryan and Steph arrive from Minnesota and it'll be Steph's first time here so being total tourists is definately on the agenda!

Happy Birthday/Anniversary

7 years ago John wanted to do something for his 50th birthday that he had never done before.
So faster than you can say"Will you marry me?" we were off to Vegas.
Even tho we were alittle nervous here we are still going strong. It's not every day you find your co-hort in crime, business partner, playmate and last but not least lover all rolled into one.

One Thing Leads To Another

The decks are complete on the Williams house and "_ _ _ _" if they don't make the paint look in a little need of TLC.


Hmmmm now that's better.
Then alittle work on the shop garage...


But have now fear. I wasn't just sitting around watching John work.
I have finally finished reupholstering the interior of Mom nd Dad's Rv.


Trust me it is much brighter. We did all the valances also .
But first I turned Dan's bobcat seat from this...


to this...
