Goodbye Arizona, Hello California!

3/13 – 3/28/2015 – Goodbye Arizona, Hello California! – Wow what a great month March turned out to be, not only with the weather in the high 80’s most of the month, but also some great times.  Started out with a fantastic round of golf at a really great course at McDowell Mountain Golf Club courtesy of my old boss from Xerox Matt Grissom in Scottsdale, Thanks Matt!!!!  While I was golfing Chippy enjoyed a special hamburger luncheon at our resort with all of our Arizona snowbird friends.  Then we had a really great St Patty’s Day dinner of Corned Beef and Cabbage at the RV Resort. Then we joined a group of about 25 from our resort and had a dinner show at the Arizona Opry and saw a great show put on by CC Ryder.  We continue to enjoy the weekly jam sessions at the resort and of course we never miss the ice cream socials or the monthly horse races.  I continue to enjoy the weekly golf outing every Tuesday with all of the golfers from the resort and Chippy loves the peace and quiet when I am not there, so out of the goodness of my heart, I also play on Thursday's.  This past Tuesday we ended the season with the annual resort championship and everyone had a really great time, which was topped off with a party and awards ceremony for the golfers and spouses the next day hosted by our golfing coordinator Frank and his wife Joan.  We will really miss the wonderful friends we have made at Superstition Lookout RV Resort and hope to see them again sometime down the road,  they have really made us feel like part of their family in the three months we have spent here in Apache Junction.  Along with the wonderful weather we have enjoyed here in AZ we have also been fortunate to have had enough rain this past fall and winter to see the desert flowers in bloom and the desert much greener than most years, the cactus flowers are really a sight to see.  We now look forward to our next journey through CA via Yosemite NP then on to OR so see our fiends Jamie and Dennis.  We have really been blessed to have been able to spend this winter in AZ and leave with so many wonderful memories and new friends.  Thanks to everyone who made us feel so welcome!!!!!
