Tombstone, AZ

I went to Tombstone, AZ, the other day to help Wyatt Earp clean up the town. We had to run some rowdy tourists out of town! The town has changed a little bit since 1880.

Happy Valentine's Day

I can't believe it has been over a month since I last posted. I have been busy, not my photographer has not been taking any pictures.
The day after the Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena, Cousin Jim received a phone call with the sad news that his mother passed away. She was almost 98 years old and still active until the end--in fact she had just returned home to Iowa from a trip to Minnesota to see her daughter and grandchildren (and great-grandchildren). Up until the trip, she was still driving her car and went to the local nursing home weekly to help the "old people" play bingo.
When Jim returned from Iowa after the funeral, we parked the motor home in the Palm Springs, CA, area. We attended the Bob Hope Classic Golf Tournament, but since cameras were not allowed, there are no pictures of me on any of the four golf courses.
Jim and Pat met their friends Rod and Joyce (Aurora, CO) several times to play golf. They also took me and Sami to the College of the Desert Street Fair, where there are hundreds of vendors on weekends. Mostly, we have been enjoying the nice weather (between rainstorms) and glad to not have to shovel snow.
We will be going to Lake Havasu City again for a week and then to St. David, AZ, before attending a rally in Las Cruces, NM.
Hope you have a Happy Valentine's Day. I may take Betty out for dinner.
Warmest regards, Gus
