Sunday - Wednesday, February 23 - March 5th, 2014 (Lake Havasu City, AZ)

With Rich being sick during most of this time period, we stayed pretty close to the 5er.  I (Kelly) did my usual morning routines of either line dancing or the exercise program:  Walk Away the Lbs.  I have to tell you, that we are both really enjoying this exercise program, it really is quite the work out.  The afternoons, I usually spend at the pool with my book.  It's really been quite relaxing. 

I did go out to lunch one day with the ladies from our line dancing class.  It was a lot of fun getting to know them all a bit better.  We went to the Javelina Cantina which is a Mexican restaurant and sat out on the patio for about a 2 hour, one margarita lunch. 

There was a little going away function I attended also for two of the ladies from our line dancing class who are leaving for home at the end of the month.  One of the ladies from class and her husband bought a lot with a very nice big casita, so the function was held at her casita so everyone could take a look.  There sure were a lot of people on that little lot.  People are so friendly here and are very social.  Happy Hour is a big thing here, that's when we usually hit the pool because we almost always have it to ourselves.  It is amazing what people do with the lots they own here.  They have pretty strict rules on what you can and can't do with the actual casita's and the landscaping but even within those strict rules, people do some pretty amazing things.  I didn't  take the camera, so I didn't get any pics of her place.

Boy it sure is interesting the big deal Arizonians make about a little bit of rain, especially for us coming from Oregon where on the west side of the mountains you can get heavy rain for days and days on end.  We had a couple little showers here and one thunderstorm that didn't last very long and it was the talk of the news stations but of course, this is the desert so rain is a big deal here.  I don't even think here in Havasu that the rain amounts were even half an inch.  I did manage to grab a nice picture of a rainbow.  It actually was a double rainbow, but doesn't show up on the picture.

Rich is finally feeling better so hopefully we will have some adventures before we head out in a couple of weeks.
