Christmas and Winter Trip to Parker, AZ

 We spent Christmas with Sam and Shannon and the boys in Bend. Winter came in
with lots of snow for a White Christmas.

 We left for Parker on Christmas late morning. There was about a foot of snow on
the ground and more was expected that night.

 We arrived in Parker on the evening of  Dec 27th and as you can tell it was tee shirts
for everyone. I have to admit it was nice to have a taste of the warm weather.

 We spent time on the river in our kayaks and even Riley got into the show.  He and
Lee spent several afternoons on the water. Lee only got dumped 1 time.  He said that
was quite enough as the water was very cold!

 Lee and I hiked with our neighbors John and Sandi Stewart. We really felt like we
were at the top of the world.

 The sunsets from our site were just awesome!  We spent many a night with our
neighbors Jerry and Roberta enjoying campfires, and hot dog roasts, and Smores
too!

This was our little piece of Winter for the winter.
We had a great time, but it is good to be back home. Today it is going to be 101degrees at Parker. Too hot for this old woman! It is now time to start digging in the dirt. Happy Spring !!!
