To all of our friends we would like to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving. To those of you are fortunate to share the holidays with family, we hope you have a blessed time. We will be spending the day with some of our kids and their families. Don't eat too much!!! hahah
Well, we are in Pahrump, NV, we made it back. We had a wonderful trip back East this year. We have been on the road since April seeing family and friends. We will stay at our winter resort and enjoy the holidays with our immediate family and friends. Tomorrow I start my first water aerobics class for the next couple of months. I have been looking forward to joining the class again and seeing some of the ladies I met last winter. The RV park is nearly full with all the snow birds that have returned for the winter. People usually stay until February or March at the latest and then move on. We look forward to planning our next trip!!
We visited our daughter in Kingman, AZ for a few days. Our grandson, Jonathon, was stressed about making the varsity team. He called the day before he left and said he was just picked for the Varsity team. He was so excited! He told his Mom, "this was a good day"! Not only had he made the team, but his class ring, came that same day!! I guess it was a good day!! Congratulations, Jon, Keep up the great work in school and on the team!!! We love you!!
Jerry loves to flash his Golden Eagle pass at the entrance to the National Parks. The little black bird was the park greeter, just sat there and watched the cars go through the park entrance. 
Gee, if we would have known we could have stayed at the Flintstone RV Park and visit Fred's Diner and see Bedrock City, WE would have!! We passed this RV park on our way to the Grand Canyon. It looked like it was cute one.
We have enjoyed watching the trees turn colors all along the way from back East. These trees are in the RV park we are staying at in Williams, AZ. How pretty! 
There were several tour buses on this particular day, mostly foreigners. We felt like we were in a different country. The tip of the lookout was full of tourists. It was a beautiful cool, fall day. It is 67 degrees in the day and the nights are 24 degrees. 
The last time we visited the Grand Canyon, we took a train ride from the Rail Way RV Park to the Grand Canyon. This time we visited the IMAX theatre and saw a movie of the Grand Canyon. The IMAX theatre's create the sensation that "you are there"! We actually went to the top and the bottom of the canyon. What a thrill of a ride!
We love to see the desert sunsets from the back porch of our kids home in Tucson. The view itself is worth the visit!! The weather this time of year is also very nice. With this beautiful view we said goodbye to our family in Tucson. We had a great visit. Thank you Linda, Gary, Katie, and Jesse!
The grand kids could hardly wait to get dressed up to go trick or treating. This was their end result and they were so proud of their outfits. They are ready, I hope everyone is ready for them. They are pistols!! 
A must to see in Tucson is the Pima Air and Space Museum. Jerry and his son, Gary, tour the museum each time we visit. It is the second largest air museum in the US. On our recent visit we were also able to obtain a tour of the military "bone yard" where used, damaged and obsolete aircraft are stored. Air force jets and fighter jets are stored there.
The grand kids in Tucson live about five minutes from this park, that was recently acquired by the County. It is their favorite place to go and feed the ducks and ride their bikes. It has quite a history also. At least two springs were noted historically at Agua Caliente Ranch, one hot and one cold. The hot spring is reported to have exceed 100 degrees F. in the 1930s however, the two springs were dynamited into one in an attempt to increase the surface flow, resulting in a single warm spring of 87 degrees F. today the spring supports three large ponds by means of interconnected canals; the earliest of these apparently dates to about 1873-74 when it was developed as a reservoir for livestock and crop irrigation. The Aqua Caliente spring became well known as a place of reliable water to cattle ranchers, travelers, and the military.
