Today Thursday we had coffee, donuts and a business meeting up at the clubhouse. Yesterday friends from home Jan and Russ visited us and had a nice visit, they were on their way to their park model home in Mesa, Arizona.
They had driven from Fresno that day, and the air conditioning wasn't working in their car, and it was 80 degrees, very hot, so they were very hot and damp. They had their energetic little dog with them, Peanut, but she's very good.
We had a light lunch and Russ had a swim in our pool, unfortunately Lary was off carving at his carving class, so he couldn't visit with them. He is concerned that he might not finish his bluejay carving this spring, as he'll miss 3 carving sessions when we are off in Hawaii later this month.
Jan and Russ left heading further east to Blythe on the CA/AZ border, hopefully their car had enough of a rest that the A/C worked on that leg of their trip.
Did the laundry last night, and today we're heading out to Annie's for a flute class with our fellow students, it will be so good to get back into it once more, I am finding that I am lazy and don't practice so much when we don't meet weekly.
Today feels a bit cooler, temps are supposed to go down slightly into the 70s; the trees roots beside our park on the east side have been invading the sewer pipes here in the park, so the trees are being removed, which will be a huge operation. They are tamarisk trees I believe, and have also been lifting our driveway road quite badly. It's a big project, and should be interesting to watch.
The huge acreage beside the park to the east seems to be unoccupied/ undeveloped, but our park has permission from the owners to get this clearing done. The trees have a bad reputation according to an article we read in the newspaper for being water hogs, and sucking areas dry of water near them.
