Our 3rd one we have celebrated since taking off on the road. For us, it isn't about buying lots of gifts and all the crazy commercialism that goes on this time of the year. Sure, we sent a little something to our little grandkids, and out great grandson. We celebrate the true spirit of Christmas, the birth of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. A time to focus on the real gift God gave us all.
We went to church last Sunday with some friends we met at the park, Ray & Connie. It was a Southern Baptist Church in Wellton, just a few miles down the road. It was a good service about the difference between Happy Holidays, and Merry Christmas. We definately prefer the latter. This is a picture of the front of the sanctuary.
Can you tell we are in Arizona? Pretty cool huh?
Last Saturday, we traveled down to Somerton, with Karen & Cliff, and Wayne & Sharon, to the big Tamale Festival.
There were many booths setup making tons of tamales.
And a couple of stages with various bands playing.
And lots of people.
We ate beef, chicken, pork, strawberry, and pineapple tamales. A good day out and about.
Yesterday, we had a Christmas Eve social at the club house. A pretty good turn out.
These functions are a good way to get to know more and more of the winter visitors here.
And we just got done setting up the place for our Christmas potluck party. It's gonna be great!
We do have an issue at the moment. No, it is not my back. That seems to be on the mend pretty good. Donna tripped and fell in the RV about a week ago and I believe she broke a rib or two. It was very painful when it happened. Then a few days later, when we thought it was healing up good, she moved just right, and the intense pain was back, with a vengeance. We are going to move slowly for awhile and see if we can get ourselves back in order.
Sucks to get old!
