Hi everyone.
I thought I was going to just sit and twiddle my thumbs for a month but..........no time for twiddling. We went to a college play with Helmsetters and Ploegstras, to the Mesa flea market with Zilmers, to a tractor show in Apache Junction with Brother Jim and Carol, plus fixed the wall and closet door track for Conrad and Dorothy--oh yes and painted the interior of a town house in Mesa for a friend from Willmar. And of course, out to eat a million times.
Carole went to the Greek Orthodox Monastery one day while I was painting. She has also been finishing some quilts for the missions quilting club at this RV park. She has also been working on her own quilts plus a little scrap booking.
We are enjoying the beautiful warm days and cool evenings. It is so nice to sit out in the evening and look at the stars with no bugs.
Who ever said nothing grows in the dessert. Even the cactus are blooming.
The before picture (partially done--replaced some wall with wood and foam).
The finished wall.
Jim, Carol and Carole at the tractor show. Standing by 1939 ford 9N tractor which is similar to the one Jim has.
Carol and Carole patiently waiting for Jim and I to look at all the tractors.
The town house where I painted the interior.
We are looking forward to two more weeks at Coolidge then off to Precott for our April project.
Coolidge is a agricultural area--several large dairy operations so have lots of alfalfa fields plus other crops. Interesting to see how they flood the fields. Otherwise the fields look like powder dust.
Until next time, nlsower

What beautiful flowering cactuses! You sound like you have a good mixture of work and play. It isn't quite warm up here yet so glad you are enjoying some warmth but we are hoping we have had our last snow fall. K went with J to cub scouts for skit night. When they can home and were performing the skits for us, A said, "Dad is getting way too into this." Looking forward to seeing you when you return. Happy Easter!
