We have been in the desert a little over a week. The connection was not cooperative the entire week but today I am hoping to get something on the blog.
We arrived May 1st after an 11.5 hour drive in the Smart Car. We stopped often and shared the driving. When we got to the Motorcoach Resort, wow what a difference, maybe only 100 coaches here compared to 400. During the last week many more left since the temps are in the triple digits. Ed has been dealing with getting the final done on the Casita, something we should have had in the contract, and we know how much ED hates dealing with building inspectors. We are still trying to get the gas hooked up but have three things that needed attention. One completed and two to go; hopefully have the inspection done by Tuesday or Wednesday. We are having some pavers put down for a patio area and hopefully that will start end of week. Our planned ten day stay is stretching to far more time.
We did take a side trip to Laughlin to visit Trish and Tom who traveled from Oregon on a month long trip. We did not take the coach, stayed at The Aquarius formally the Pink Flamingo. They have decent rooms and what I like about this place is the outdoor amphitheater. We missed the Beach Boys by one day. We also played on Aquarius funds.... that is always a plus.
Denise is doing well, she sounds much better this week and will know next week if she has to do any radiation treatment. I think she is planning on going back to work next week.
I was trying to get tickets to American Idol on Friday because of being a member of Ticketmaster and something else I had an early opportunity, but my connection even at the hotel could not get online, anyway long story, short version, I had Denise get the tickets on Saturday and gave her the info etc... I think she found out how frustrating this process is to get decent seats.
Today, Ed is going to finish the nuisance projects for the inspector, we will probably go to the pool this afternoon and just have a kickback day. Not sure when we will be home but I am getting homeanitus!!! Have a great day and will post some pictures when they start tearing the place up..
