Happy Valentines

Happy Valentines day everyone. Another hot one in the Valley of the Sun. Had company from GP today, the Fergusons came for a visit. We went down to Totilla Flats for a burger & a beer with them. On the patio there: the sun was shining, the band was playing & the beer was cold, not sure about you, but for most of us that makes for a good day. On the way back we stopped at Goldfield, the ghost town for some real old west experience. They took so many photos, I thought we had Charlene with us - LOL. She is on her 2nd memory stick & thats a lot of pics. Laden with souveniers from both places we made it back to the park by late afternoon in time for Miller time. It was spaghetti night in the park and they stayed for dinner. That was cool because it gave them a chance to see what a regular event day here is like. They also saw how friendly everyone here is. For supper there was salad, spaghetti with meatballs, bread, coffee & desert. Well desert was ice cream & they were short a scooper, so... I ended up dishing out ice cream tonight - 2 days in a row. This is getting to be almost a full-time occupation. It was pretty funny, because people were still asking for banana splits. When I sat to eat, Marg took over & dropped a dish on the floor when she was getting some for Gerry. It was pretty funny. Marg brought the big 1 gal jug of Sangria she bought yesterday & was easily the most popular person in the hall. With that much, there was quite a bit left over, so she passed it to the kitchen workers. This volunteering sure had her thinking about the people who make it happen ;>) There were even multiple requests for the empty bottle. We enjoyed our day with Janette & Rick and they seemed to have a good day as well.
