Holiday Plans

After talking about options for taking a short trip over the holidays, we settled on a trip that will take us to western AZ over New Year's. There are a couple of RV Resorts that we want to check out. One is in Yuma - actually, a small town just east of Yuma called Wellton. The other one is in Lake Havasu City which is north of Yuma on the way to - yes, Laughlin. We will stay one night (December 28) in Yuma at the Best Western Hotel, one night in Parker, which is about half way to Laughlin, on December 29 at the Bluewater Resort and Casino on the Colorado River, and finally, arrive in Laughlin on the 30th and spend New Year's Eve at the Aquarius Hotel and Casino. It's been awhile since we've been to any casino, so the trip should be a fun one.

One of the options we have considered for the future, when we don't want to travel in the RV, is locating a Resort where we can place the fifth wheel to use as a permanent location and as a home base. An important aspect of any RV Resort is that we own the space and don't pay a monthly fee to live there. The two that we will be looking at - Copper Ridge near Yuma, and  Havasu RV Resort - both satisfy that requirement and are reasonably priced. Since they are not too far from Laughlin, and we haven't visited there for about a year, it made sense for us to spend the New Year at a familiar location. The town will be jumping that weekend and we are looking forward to a great time.

Josie is plugging away with her long days and she still has found time to finish up a Christmas present that she made for our grand daughter - Harmony. It is a scarf and hat that she crocheted and we will send it to her this weekend:


It turned out great, and we think Harmony will love it as they are done in her favorite colors.

TGIF and it is the final work day this week for Josie. We have some local errands to run this weekend and maybe we will be able to throw in some exercise, so we are ready for the nice weather that is in the forecast for the weekend...
