Busy morning.......



Our Location:  Quail Ridge Rv Park, Hauchua City, Arizona


A very quiet night here in Quail Ridge RV Park.  A fantastic night’s sleep with comfortable temperatures for sleeping. We didn’t really have any plans for today but it turned out to be a productive morning. It started with me going to give the oven a quick scrub as our Shepherd’s Pie spilled a bit the other night. Well of course you know that there is nothing quick in cleaning an oven and so I spent some time giving it a good scrubbing down.

 
Historic Marker at Lordsburg, NM rest area.

From the oven I moved on to the Dogsled and pulled out the vacuum to give it a good clean. Wiping down everything and tidying up all the nooks and crannies. Riley cleaned the windows to finish off the Dogsled’s clean up, while I vacuumed some of the accumulated debris from one of the cubbies in the Igloo. After that I cleaned up the cubbies, set up the BBQ, and even managed a bit of a walk to the dumpster.

A call to dad around noon Mountain Time to shoot the breeze had the information that brother Rick has broken a bone in his leg but I’m not sure which bone as I haven’t talked to Rick or Barb yet. He will be seeing an Orthopedic Surgeon on Tuesday.  Dad also told me all of the snow has melted except under the trees but they are once again calling for more snow and so their respite was short lived.
 
Numerous of these plants growing here at Quail Ridge.
 
 
Lunch was a pasta dish today as it is our usual standard Sunday fair. We watched some tv and just enjoyed the afternoon. By 4 pm the sun started going down and so of course the air started cooling down. The daytime highs of 78F/  25.5 C started dropping quickly.
 
 
Dark settled in before long and we spent the evening entertaining ourselves with a movie called the Dirty Dancing. We always enjoy watching it. 
 
A much bigger version but this one is located at Quail Ridge RV, Arizona.
 
So there you have it, our first full day here. Thanks for stopping by I hope you enjoyed your visit. Today’s pictures were all taken with my phone. I forgot that I had snapped a few while we were walking at the rest area in Lordsburg but I’ve included them tonight as well.

Until next time….. take care, be safe,

  2. Sometimes those chores just have to get done but you have a lovely place to get it done. Temperatures sound perfect to me! Hopefully your brother can get his leg taken care of without too much pain involved..poor guy!

    1. Hahaha... you are so right. I am still finding Yuma hair, I was just thinking how surprising it was to still be finding Yuma hairs.
