On Tuesday, Dec. 1st we left the Sands RV and Golf Resort and after picking up groceries at Walmart-oh I hate to say that, but yes, Walmart- we headed south about 50 miles to The Fountain of Youth Spa near Niland, CA.
We were given a spot right beside Bob and Neila Lowe from Grindrod, BC. Bob works for Rod's Towing in Enderby and he told us in August that he was coming here so we said we might stop here too. We visited Eleanor Skyrme-Holmes here in 1999 when we came to Palm Springs. We wanted to come back some day so the day came and here we are.
We were introduced to the pool area that afternoon and in the evening we went to the TNT (Tuesday Night Talent Show). My goodness, there's some good talent here. There were also a lot of people in the hall. Today I wanted to go to the pool early so we went just before noon and Mike and I were soon playing water ball. Now I haven't played volleyball since high school but this was really fun. When we finished I didn't want to get out of the water. Tonight I think I'm a little sunburned. I came home about 3pm and had a nap. Mike woke me up to join the happy hour next door and I mean next door; about three feet from our mat. Happy hour turned into almost four hours. By that time I was dressed in fleece pants, t-shirt, sweater and fleece jacket. It turned cooler than last night very quickly. Mike finally came in and made hot dogs for dinner and then I did the dishes and here I am in the computer room typing this. They charge $4.00 a day for wi-fi but these computers are free so I am taking of advantage of the time here to do this blog. We paid for a week and I am fine with that. Tomorrow I'm going to come down here and volunteer my services with the computer class. In the afternoon there is MahJong and I hope to go to that and learn how to play. I play it on the computer but it is different when playing with someone else, I think.
We met Julie and Eugene from GoodnPlenty in Armstrong. They are here for a week and then going to Hemet before going on to Phoenix.
We are not sure where we are going next. It's one day at a time here, after all it is December.
Caio,
Mave n Mike and the Brat, Weaver
