Heading Home
We made it to Holbrook, AZ at about dark. The traffic was light and not alot of Semi-trucks. A good night sleep and we will be on the road again.
Vegas Baby!
We went to see "Zumanity" Cirque de Soleil. Front row center isle seats. WOW! It was so much fun. Then the next night was Terry Fator. He is amazing. Very funny and a his puppets were almost alive.
Yesterday we went to Red Rock Canyon.

Las Vegas
We made it to Las Vegas. Pulled into Sam's Town RV park at about 10:00 am and headed to Mandalaya Bay for Bob's meeting. I only put $45 into the slot machines, I need to learn a new game. After the meeting we went to a show "Zumanity", we had front row tickets. Luckily we were not picked to go up on stage. It's a "Cirque du Soleil". It's amazing what a young person in REALLY good shape can do with their bodies!
We sit on the strip for a long time, had ribs at Harley Davidson's BBQ rib restaurant, because it had tables outside on the strip and then headed to the RV about 2:00 am.

RV Update
Just talked to the service man. RV will be ready in 2 hours. The radiator was under warranty. GOOD LUCK, Las Vegas here I come!
Lion King
We took Bengi and her family to see Lion King. What a great performance. The opening number is one of the best theatrical performances I have ever seen. I am so glad that I got to share it with my grandkids, daughter and her husband.
Headed to Las Vegas
We started to Las Vegas Wednesday morning. Made it to Yukon Starbucks. Bob forgot his hat. My Bob is not Bob without his hat. So we returned to pick up his hat.
We set the cruise control on 65 mph in the RV. Bob drove to TX and I drove thru TX while Bob slept, ate, worked on computer, checked his blood sugar, took insulin, went to the bathroom and anything else he could think of doing while traveling down the road.
We arrived in Albuquerque at about 8:30pm. We decided to eat before we went to the RV park. We parked about a block off the street where the Italian restaurant was. After a fabulous dinner we walked back to RV. Took off and went about 3 blocks and the radiator overheated. We called AAA and they are not machanic, but would tow us. We found some water and filled the radiator and made it to the RV park.
This morning we called a ford dealership here that would work on a Class C RV. So we are in the coffee shop waiting the outcome of what's wrong with the RV.
ONE funny thing happened. Bob put the gallon water jug down on the step of the door where I was sitting and then slammed the door. The water shot right up all over me. OPPS!

I believe that for every drop of rain that falls:
A flower grows.
A foundation leaks.
A ballgame gets rained out.
and
A car rusts.

Camping
It beginning to warm up and camping time is getting closer and closer.
Pitching a tent is NO problem!
I pitched mine in the trash and booked a hotel!

Taxes:
The latest income-tax form has been greatly simplified. It consists of only three parts:
1. How much did you make last year?
2. How much do you have left?
3. Send amount listed in part 2.
Q: Why is a tax loophole like a good parking spot?
A: As soon as you see one, it's gone.

Tax Time
Do you realize that some tax forms ask you to check a box if
you are BLIND?
Bumper Sticker:
When you do a good deed, get a receipt in case Heaven is like the IRS.
Q: Ever wonder why the IRS calls it Form 1040?
A: Because for every $50 that you earn, you get $10 and they get $40.

Good Friday
It is a GOOD FRIDAY. I am with my dad in ICU, but he is doing great. It was a little scary yesterday, but he has passed the critical stage and is sitting up eating his breakfast. Ready to go home.

You Know You Have Had Too Much Coffee When...
*You get a speeding ticket even when you're parked
*You grind your coffee beans in your mouth
*You sleep with your eyes open
*You have to watch videos in fast-forward
*You lick your coffee pot clean
*Your eyes stay open when you sneeze
*The nurse needs a scientific calculator to take your pulse
*You can type sixty words a minute with your feet
*You can jump-start your car without cables
*Your only sources of nutrition comes from "Sweet & Low"
*You don't sweat, you percolate
*You've worn out the handle on your favorite coffee mug
*You go to AA meetings just for the free coffee
*You've worn the finish off you coffee table
*The Taster's Choice couple wants to adopt you
*Starbuck's owns the mortgage on your house
*You're so wired you pick up FM radio
*Your life's goal is to "amount to a hill of beans"
*Instant coffee takes too long
*You want to be cremated just so you can spend eternity in a coffee can
*You name your cats "Cream" and "Sugar"
*Your lips are permanently stuck in the sipping position
*Your first-aid kit contains two pints of coffee with an I.V. hookup

Purpose....
Any child can tell you that the sole purpose of a middle name is so he can tell when he's in trouble.

Thought......
Live in the present,
forgive your past.
Do a little more each day than you think you possibly can.

Love Vs Romance
My husband sent me this:
Love...
It's not just about dancing in the rain
But mending the leaking roofs together
It's not just about candlelight dinners
But doing the greasy dishes together
It's not just about swinging in the hammock
But rocking the cradle together
It's not just about a long nice drive
But fixing the flat tyres together
It's not just about holding hands
But lifting the furniture together
It's not just about chocolates and Bourbons
But visiting the dentist together
It's not just about sharing a postal address
But sharing THE remote, if you can
It's not just about a cozy Friday movie
But standing in the ticket queue too
LOVE...
It's not just about picking silly eye-lashes
But about counting the wrinkles as sweetly
It's not just about Archies Cards
But handling the Ration-Card together
It's not just about gazing at the stars in space
But giving the space your special one needs
It's not just about giving scarlet roses
But scooping out the weeds in the garden together
It's not just about loving the charms
But about loving the flaws as
LOVE...
It's not just about giving gifts
But about giving sacrifices too
It's not just about great conversations
But about listening the unsaid
It's not just about pillow-talks or pillow-fights
But about making your shoulder a pillow forever
It's not just about how many anniversaries you celebrate
But about how many break-up moments you survive
It's not just about sitting beside
But about STANDING BY, no matter what!
It's not just about some Dates
But about years...and forever....
Love is not the Coke that will fizz out the next or next-to-next Valentine Day
But a wine, that will endure, grow and linger on against all odds.

APRIL
I can't believe that it's April. Rehab is going great. The RN's there are so great! Still not using my arms. That's really weird for me, but I am doing just as the doctor says.
