Super Bowl Day

This is H's last jigsaw puzzle he put together, his last for a while, it ties up the table and we can't eat there.
Denise (my niece) and her husband Ron came down from Phoenix Friday to stay overnigth.

Denise and Ron came down Friday after work. We went to downtown Yuma for the Mardi Gras, ate a little Gumbo and had sausage sandwichs (very spicy sandwich), walked around a little then went back to Moose. We played a game of marbles then just talked. They went back to Phoenix about noon on Saturday.


Then Christa arrived about 1430 from San Diego to visit for a while. We ate at Cracker Barrel because she loves them and there are none in California. She did not stay long. We went to the Yuma Territorial Prison to tour it but they were ready to close, so we just took a few pictures. She went back to CA just as it was getting dark. I worried about her driving over the mountains after dark, I talked to her later and she said the wind had been terrible, people were weaving all over the road due to wind gusts. It was great to see her again.

We went to see a local production of "Oliver" in the old Yuma Theatre. Many children it the cast, Oliver was played by an 11 year old who had a good voice just not very strong, the Artful Dodger was played by a 12 year old who is multi-talented, he dances, sings, and acts. He had a really great voice, as well as many other of the cast members. Over-all, for a small local group, I thought it was really good.
