Clear Skies and Sunshine!

Rick the Music Man --
The group gathers around the campfire to drink wine, eat popcorn, visit and sing along with Rick --


After the sun went down, it started to get cool, but the fun went on --




What a gorgeous day today! The sun was shining when we got up and the sky was beautiful, blue and clear. I got up early and stuck the egg and sausage casserole I had made last night into the oven while we showered. The breakfast potluck was every bit as bountiful as the dinner potluck was last night. Everything from biscuits and gravy to a crock pot full of oatmeal, fruit plates, cinnamon rolls, and several kinds of casseroles.

After breakfast we went into Quartzite to the RV show where we met up again with Juni and Tom. They left the dogs at their motorhome which was probably as good thing as there were several large dogs at the show that would probably found little Izzie as one good mouthful. The good news is that their generator seems to be working!


We did pick up a few things at the big tent -- which is more like the commercial building at a big state fair. There are more kitchen cutlery, food chopper, pot and pan, and health food vendors than actual RV supplies. Forry did find some shut-off valves for the shower and a new pressure regulator for the water system as well as a new telescoping floor mop.


This evening the ACA sponsored a wine, beer, cheese and cracker party. The evening was quite warm -- especially after the storms of the last few days -- and lots of the attendees gathered at a rather large bonfire where we were entertained for a couple of hours by "Rick the Music Man" with his guitar and wonderful singing voice. The man has an incredible memory and quite a repertoire of folk and rock music. There is a bright half moon, the stars were bright, the wine was mellow and the popcorn tasty. Life is good!
