Lake Erie


Nikki sent me these photos of Lake Erie, taken yesterday. It is cold and windy here in Yuma today, just glad we do not have Ohio's kind of cold.

Christmas Day

We ate under the trees, warm but breezy. Way too much food. A really good day. Games until late in the evening.

Christmas Eve in Yuma

A fire and Christmas carols with friends. Fun! A little cool, and a slight breeze, a sweatshirt was just great. The gloves H is wearing are for loading wood into the fire so he doesn't pick up a scorpion or spider.

Hoover Dam

On way home from Vegas, we stopped at the Hoover Dam, these pics were taken from the new bridge that was built to keep truck traffic off dam. They have it set up with a walkway so everyone can get a good view of the dam.

Las Vegas

We went up to Las Vegas over the weekend to meet Nikki and Terry, they had flown out to see Dave Matthews perform. This pic was taken in the Palazzo, where we stayed.

Nikki and H. Below are pics of our suite. Nicest room we have ever had. The curtains operate with a remote. 3 TVs, 1 in the bathroom.





We did a gondola ride, this canal is in the Palazzo. She sang 2 songs while she paddled along.

Flowers



Saw these flowers near a welding shop where we stopped to get a track for our gate. Thought they were pretty. Lots of flowers this time of year.
