The Dixon's weekly adventures

The time is just flying we are having such a great time. The weather remains fabulous even though it has cooled off to the high 70's. Certainly makes it more bearable in the day compared to 2 weeks ago when we were hitting the high 90's! The park is starting to fill as the snow birds arrive. A good friend from Saskatchewan and her husband arrived yesterday.
We were in to Mesa on Friday to visit with our BC friends Malcolm and Grace Coupland. They were celebrating their 38th wedding anniversary with a little get together. Lots of fun

On Saturday, my brother Brian and his wife Cathy from Calgary, were in Phoenix and came out to Gold Canyon and spent the day with us. We went to the Mesa Market, did a bit of driving around to show them the fabulous golf courses, went for a little walk in the desert and had a fabulous dinner. The day went way too quickly

The sun was so bright I couldn't keep my eyes open for the pictures. I was wishing I had my sun glasses on!

The end of a wonderful day

The time is flying. I am now attending water aerobics 3x's a week, and starting this Tuesday, we have a personal trainer coming to the park twice a week and doing a weights and stretch bands class for us. Keeps me busy. Doug doesn't need activities to keep himself busy, he can putter! He blew a hole in the muffler of his ATV so we are waiting for a call this week from the dealer saying the parts are in and then he will have to take it in for repairs, so no riding in the desert for a few days....oh well
