Home from the cruise on Nov. 18th, washed and packed on the 19th, and headed to the desert on the 20th...with another full car load. The first week, we spent, as usual, getting everything turned on and cleaned up. Then started enjoying ourselves.
First up...the Ladder Hike with Esther, her Mother and sister, Laurie.
Up we go...Allan was our leader.
No ladders for this section...just had to scramble up. Esther's Mom is a climber!
Laurie and Esther...in the slots.
Up on top...out of the canyons now.
Back out on the wash...
and one set of ladders out...we're done!
Another great hike.
Esther and Jim still here...met at Jackalope Ranch for Happy Hour.
They've been our football watching buddies...especially when Rutgers is playing.
A beautiful sunset that evening...
Next day...Santa goes up on the patio roof...he waves to all the golfers as they go by.
Over the week-end...went to the Indio Tamale Festival...and parade.
Love all the bands...
...and the goofy cars. How did they do that?
Enjoying the warm December evenings...sipping my Almond Champagne...oh, yeah!
Christmas is up, the beer is chilled, the champagne is in...and we're ready to party.
Come on down!
