It’s amazing how much stuff there is to load up when it is time to leave. I washed and vacuumed the inside of the Beast then loaded the golf club and got Tucker space ready. I also washed the inside of the all the windows; packed up the bikes as Val has gone for her last Tai-Chi this morning which I am told, was quite emotional. I also packed some of the chairs; the rest will be done tomorrow. I also added air to the tires on the truck and filled the air bags. I called AOR, ROD and WHR on Skype to make reservations in Arizona; Yuma, Ehrenberg and Salome starting March 19. I called my son, Jeff tonight.
I did more cleaning in the morning and packing! I called Rochelle’s home and got Hayley so we chatted with her for a while then I called Rochelle cell phone and we chatted for a while with her. They were picking up Kevin’s bike which was a shop for servicing before his spring trip. We learned that Hayley now has a new car which she never mentioned...Kids!!! Then we went into Guaymas to buy some groceries at Soriana and Wal-Mart. We came home, put everything away then drove to the “Lot” to say our goodbyes. We had a good time with the crew at the Lot and lots of laughs unfortunately, as anything good, it had to come to an end so we said our goodbyes, hugged everyone and came home around 6:20pm. The gang at Totonaka was getting ready to go to the Chinese restaurant just outside the Park so we joined them. We had a very nice dinner then came home one more time and watched TV for a while.
The clock moved an hour ahead but we stay the same as Sonora and Arizona do not honor the “Saving Daylight” thing. I spent the morning loading the rest of our stuff including kayaks then at noon; we went to the San Carlos plaza where a chilli cook-out was taking place, including live music. There were seven stalls all differently decorated and all the chilli tasted different yet similar. It cost 10 pesos per taste, money going to charity. It wasn’t as good as it was two years ago but it was good. We enjoyed ourselves and had a good time. Joyce and Bill cycled back, we drove back and the rest of the gang walked back (quite a distance). Once back at the Park, I was sitting inside when someone knocked and as I went to see who it was, there standing was Gaylord, a friend we met here two years ago. We sat outside and got up to each other’s news. It was wonderful seeing him again. They had just come down from Puerto Penasco so I really grilled him on the road to follow and which park to go to. Him and his wife, Carole who is legally blind, came over later and joined us for Happy Hour. Dinner was late but who cares!
Tomorrow, we leave for Santa Anna, Mexico
