I Think It's Thursday..............

Ron and Diane arrived in Yuma yesterday afternoon so today we got together to try and show them around the area. We headed for the Proving Grounds to watch the Golden Knights parachute team practice. The wind picked up and they suspended jumping at the same time we arrived. Bummer. We then headed up to the Castle Dome Ghost Town and Museum and took a trip through the desert. Stopped and took pictures here and there and B and I saw things we missed on our first trip to the Museum. Check out the Wayne carrots. Spent a bit of time there and then stopped at a little picnic table to wolf down some goodies we had picked up at the Proving Grounds Commissary. Took a "short cut" back to town on some levee roads and farm country. Believe they enjoyed the trip. Dropped them off and tomorrow we're going to try to get back to the Proving Grounds earlier in the morning. Winds seem to pick up around noon so one of the Golden Knights said she was sure they'll be jumping earlier in the day.

Wednesday we were back to Suz and Frank's for another meal prepared on the their smoker. This is great, I get the meat, sit back and feed my face while Frank does on the cooking and Sue makes all the fixins. Wow, two sit down meals in two months. I'm really living high on the hog! I'll be searching for some prime baby back ribs for the next venture. Check out the pics........kinda make you hungry doesn't it. After early dinner Frank busied himself with woman's work (cleaning up the bar b que) and then we sat around and let a great meal settle. We were joined by the local Roadrunner. He skipped up and down the fence and finally shuffled off when he didn't get any food. Check his head feathers out in the last two pics........appears that his head feathers stand up when he's suspicious or about ready to fly away. He was kinda fun to watch.

More later. W&B
