Dryer- Mexico- Open Houses

Another full week, lets see if I can remember what we did. Monday we had a meeting. The annual Walk About was this week and we volunteered to help. The rest of the day was just doing laundry etc.

Tuesday we went to Mexico. Two couples here that are renting lots have never been down there and the woman wanted to go. Larry was our driver so we could enjoy a margarita with our lunch. Seems about half of our park decided to go down there that day as we kept running into residents. There were quite a few people there that day, haven't seen the streets that busy in a long time.

That night there was a social hour at the clubhouse and they rented a margarita machine. Lots of snacks and the drinks were good.

The new dryer Larry ordered for the laundry room (at clubhouse) arrived this week so once that was set he finished up on some of the installation. Normally when you need some thing done around here it takes forever. A new gas line had to be run which surprisingly the plumber came within a few days, dryer came two days ahead of schedule and Larry was able to finish it up the next day. So from the time he got the ok to purchase and install to having it completed was 11 days, that's a record for this area.

The Walk Thru the Village was on Friday and even tho it was in the 80's there was a good breeze. The developer puts this on every year to help promote interest in our community. Residents here can open their carriage houses/homes if they choose too so people can see them. Larry and I don't open ours as we have a shed and it will always be a shed so we helped up at the clubhouse. People were directed to a parking area, brought up to the front door of clubhouse on golf carts, could register for door prizes and see the inside than out to the patio for hot dogs, pop corn and water. Once done there they could catch a golf cart and were dropped off at different points to walk around. Last year they let the people drive vehicles and it was just way to congested. This really worked out good. I'm not sure how much water they purchased but they had tubs of it all through the park which people sure needed. They figured about 200+ attended. Sorry no pictures, forgot the camera and I was busy.

Only have a few pictures to share and they all pertain to Pepper. Donna Zinnecker made a place mate for Peppers food dish. Not sure I want to put this on the floor, thinking I'll take it back to Michigan and maybe hang it just above her water dish,
One day when I was sweeping Pepper kept biting at the hose. Found out she really likes this and now she expects it every time I get the sweeper out.

Here's another place she really seems to like
This is where she waits for us when we leave her. Look close in the bottom of the window

So that's about it for this week. Our annual yard sale is next Saturday so I'm getting ready for that. Don't have much but it's always fun. Than next Sunday four of us ladies are organizing a picnic down at the River. I'll remember the camera next week for that.

Till next time.................................
