On March 14, 2023, we headed to breakfast at Mr. D’s Route 66 Diner. When we walked in, Becky, our waitress from yesterday greeted us. Since it wasn’t that busy, we spent time chatting with her. I commented on her positivity and she told us her story. She was burned very badly and spent over a year getting skin grafts and healing. She is now grateful for every day she is alive and just loves to serve. What an inspiration.
That is one of the things I love about traveling – meeting folks like Becky and hearing her story.
(BTW. Breakfast was wonderful too!)
We made our way south – to Casa Grande:
How about that green desert!
Yellow Flowers!
Purple Flowers!
Lots of yellow flowers!
And orange ones too!
Beautiful – I have never seen the desert like this!
We arrived home late afternoon and relaxed.. A long two days.
Wednesday, 15th, my cousin, Kris, who lives in Tempe, came down and spent the day with us. It was so so good to see her and get caught up. There is never a loss for words between us. (Love you Kris!) Hope to see her again before we head east.
Thursday, 16th, we spent cleaning up, cleaning out, and sorting the things in our sheds. Some stuff is staying here, some going to Yuma, and some going home. (No, I still haven’t figure out what we are going to do – LOL.)
That evening we had a great time at the St. Patty’s Day Dinner here at the park and the next day at Meet and Greet. Always good to reconnect and get caught up with folks I have not seen in a while. And to meet others along the way.
The other days were the normal laundry, shopping.. etc..
For now our plans are to stay here until 3/24, go to Yuma until 4/1, come back to Casa Grande for ??? and then head east. First to Benson to see friends, then east to ??? Will figure it out then.
So stay tuned and enjoy today.
