February 23 - 24, 2012 The Colorado River

Thursday

This morning our power went off about 8 AM but not before I was able to do a little mending with the sewing machine – :-))).  Since it was still a little chilly (~ 48 degrees), we decided to head to Parker for a few supplies.

Back at the RV with the weather warming up and the river calling us, we inflated the kayak and headed out.  It was BEAUTIFUL! 

We first paddled upstream, then across to this development.  Glenda and Don told us about all the canals around the homes – WOW – I would love to see the inside of some of them – :-).

Anyway, we went in this area:

 

And came out down river:

Sorry no pictures – we did not want to bring our cameras (just in case).

Andy dropped me off and then went out a little longer – he is in the center of the picture:

The weather has been beautiful – 80’s during the day and 40’s at night.  So we just took it easy all afternoon.  Don and Elise stopped by and we got caught up with each other.  Hopefully our paths will cross again this season.

Today, Friday, was my do nothing day.  I did get caught up with the blog so over the next few days they will all be published. 

Life doesn’t get any better than this – :-)!
