WOW.......Here It Is Well Into The New Year.............

and I haven't posted any updates! SBT. Actually we haven't been doing anything lately except eating, sleeping, gambling and geocaching.

Here's some pictures of our little excursion to the ridges and rocks North of Wellton, a little town 20 or so miles East of Yuma. Larry, Theresa, Becky and I went out to hunt down some caches near some scenic mountains. Theresa likes to hike and do some climbing; but, she chickened out when I challenged to try and climb to the top of some of these little "hills". Hell, it wore me out just looking at their tops. We were out there on the 31st.

On New Years we drove out NW of Yuma where JJ and friends were camping. Theresa had captured 12 FTFs early that morning and this gave her an opportunity for another one or two. We found the one JJ had placed at his campsite, BSd for a while and started to leave to try and find one more. I backed the Suzy up..........something was wrong, stopped and found the right front tire was practically in shreds............several holes punched in the sidewall. We started to change the tire and JJ ended up doing that for us. The next cache was several miles further into the desert so we passed on looking for it and headed home. Theresa ended with 13 FTFs on New Years..........a personal record.

Got up kinda early this morning and hippitey hopped to the tire shop. PEP Boys had their sale.............buy three and get the 4th free. The tires weren't really that bad, on the highway they would have lasted for a few more thousand miles; but, driving in the desert and rocks like we do, I figured it best to replace all four.

Stopped by the M/C shop on the way home and still looking for carb parts for the Rhino. Looks like it might be Wednesday before I can pick it up. Bummer............could really have used it this weekend.

Today, Larry, Becky and I went out to make a dent in all the New Year's Day caches that had been placed. Think there were 29 new ones and we found 20+ of them today. Great day for browsing around the desert..............nice and sunny, may have gotten into the 70s and had a little bit of a breeze for most of the day. Northern Folks...........eat your hearts out.

Our lot is now full, 4 rigs, with the arrival of the last snowbird on Thursday.

That's about it sports fans...........speaking of sports fans.........those damn Ducks cost me a lunch for two!! First time I ever bet on them.........and probably the last time too.

Had a great run of luck at the casinos; but, on Friday they got to my goody locker..........today Becky and I went out to dinner and we stopped by the Paradise again...........I was ahead, too dumb to quit; but, I finally did quit with $11.00 of their money. Guess that's better then contributing. More later if anything happens down here. W&B
