This and That

I'm back from the dentist and I am all done with them for a while hopefully.  In spite of where we were going we had a fun two days away, but now we have to play catch up.  If all goes according to plan we will be leaving here next Sunday for six months of travel.  We have been lax on keeping the cabinets organized and leaving appliances on counters and such.  Now we must pay the fiddler as the saying goes. We still have a few things to do on our list.  We need to have blood tests done, repack the basement, put the car hitch on the car, and last minute lunches with friends. 

   Our friends Mary and Chuck are leaving in the morning for MN.  Inez is leaving Thursday for VT, as have other friends  left for IN. and Michigan. Most of the Canadians have also already left for home.  The pool and the pool room are almost empty now most of the time.  

 I took a few pictures on the way to Mexico the other day from the car.  Didn't come out bad considering.  

 Arizona has rubberized asphalt pavement on some of their roads and is adding more as we speak.  I love them!  They are so quiet!  Arizona is spending  $34 million in the next three years on this type of road.  Seems to me a great way of using up old worn out tires. Recycling make sense to me.  It is said also to give smoother rides and handles better in rainy weather.  

 Have a good day and you all stay out of trouble.    Later.

Have A Good Day

I'm sick tonight with a bad cold or allergies.  Don't know which one but my nose and eyes are constantly running.  Probably more than you wanted to know.  But anyway.    That cute little rabbit in the first picture is no afraid of anyone.  He visits several times a day and naws on our rug it.  If Bob catches him he will get a size 9, you know where.  The rug was new when we got here in October, now it's junk.  Bob took it to the trash today and Mr. Rabbit is looking for it.  He's been sitting there most of the day.  

We are going to Mexico early tomorrow morning to finish up my dental work and will be back Thursday night.  Take care of each other.  Love to you all.

JOHN PAUL II 1920-2005

  Pope John Paul II will be remembered as a strong-willed, energetic religious leader who left a profound mark on both the Roman Catholic church and world history.  He is now with his loving father.

Odds and Ends

  Hey Everyone...I've been busy the last few days.  We had to replace the water heater,  fitted for new glasses, ordered new sheets and puff, went to the movies and went to Bingo. 

   The cactus are really starting to bloom now and there are beautiful.  If I have time tomorrow, I'll snap some pictures.  

 We are saying good-by daily to friends that are heading home for the summer, and looking forward to seeing them again in the fall.  

 The Minutemen are coming to Arizona.  They are called by some vigilantes, gun nuts or crackpots in camouflage.  Others call them fairly effective.  I see that both sides make some sense. With the announcement that they were coming, Arizona was suddenly getting 534 more Border Patrol agents and 23 aircraft to patrol the boarder.  Sounds pretty effective to me. 

  Please keep the Pope in your prayers.

"You can keep the ball."

HAPPY EASATER

I went to the eye doctor yesterday for my six month exam.  Several years ago I got shingles and they landed in my left eye.  What a pain in more ways than one.  Ten years later and I still need three different eye drops daily twice a day.    Anyway  one of my eyes has changed and I need new glasses.  I want to use my same frames as they were comfortable and expensive to purchase before.  Now  I must wait about two weeks before they will be ready.   This should be fun!  So don't be surprised  if the spelling is off for a while.  So, in two weeks I'll have a new tooth and new glasses.  Waaa Whooo!   You won't recognize me.  Now if I could grow a few inches, I'd be looking good.  

It's hard to believe Easter is here already.  The last five months have just flown by and soon we will be on the  road again.   When we get that ansy feeling, it's time to start rolling again.   We are going to Easter service tonight and will join friends having a Easter brunch poolside tomorrow.  If I think of it, I'll bring my camera.    Later afternoon we are having a traditionally Easter dinner.  

 

    Bob and I wish you a blessed and happy Easter. 

Easter - the resurrection of Christ

Holy Moly

Here's a picture of a public toilet in HOUSTON

 
Now that you have seen the outside view of the Toilet,

Just spend another moment scrolling down to see how it looks from inside.!

 

 
 That's made entirely out of one-way glass. No one can see you in there, but when you are inside, it looks like you're sitting in a clear glass box.

Would you / could you use it ???
