Connie & Michael Visit

Connie and Michael D. from Cottonwood, Arizona, arrived for an overnight visit yesterday about 1 pm.  We gave them the "three hour tour" and enjoyed a great evening of fine friendship.  Connie and Michael actually came out to Bowery to visit us in July 2007.  We last saw the at our Anti-Super Bowl Party in early February this year.  They are very fun folks and went out of their way to come and visit.  They were on the Oregon Coast and decided to come back to Arizona "the long way."  THANKS for your Great Visit, Connie & Michael!

Yesterday morning we attended a ribbon cutting for the new Ryder Park family fishing pond.  While the dignitaries were making speeches, several kids were pulling big fish out of the water.  Fish & Game put 2,000 fish in the small pond so practically every cast resulted in landing a fish.  There's nothing like success to hook kids on fishing.

Our trip to City of Rocks is definitely a "GO."  The weather will be as perfect as possible for the upcoming weekend.  We're sure looking forward to it.

Susun is coming along well after her oral surgery Monday morning.  She's still on a diet of soup and very soft foods.  She gracefully abstained from Happy Hour last night and, instead, served up a wonderful meal for Connie, Michael and me.  THANKS, Sweetie!

Have a great day & Many Cheers!  jp
