Dealing with the Winter Weather (Casa Grande, AZ)

 

Just wanted to give you guys the heads up.  I know you are dealing with cold, rainy weather.  Also, not to mention the SNOW.  We also are dealing with winter weather.  It is clear sunny 88 degrees and we will have to walk all the way over to the pool/hot tub to cool off.

It is hot, but it is a dry heat.  I know every one will wish us well as we deal with this winter weather here in Arizona.  In love

Now for a happier note, here is what we have been doing.   Our good friends Jan and Jim Leigh stopped by the RV park we are staying at for a few days.

We met Jan and Jim at a New Horizons Rally a few years ago in Florida.  Unfortunately, they went over to the dark side of RVing. they sold their New Horizons 5th and  bought a motorhome.   But we will forgive their transgressions and remain friends forever.  Surprised smile

We visited the Casa Grande Ruins that was built by the “ The Ancient Sonoran Desert People”  and lived there for thousands of years.  They farmed the land by building a vast  network of canals to irrigate the land.  Then around 1450 C.E.  they abandoned the land and disappeared.   No one can explain why.

The next day we took a trip to Florence, AZ.  Florence was having a “29th Annual Celebration of Historic Florence Arizona” day.  This happens the second Saturday in February each year.  The private homes and businesses that are in historic buildings open their doors so the people can see the many buildings

They also had a Gunfight in the street.
