Friends, More Friends, and Still More Friends

While Don continues to struggle to balance his meds with his pain level, we have enjoyed visiting with more friends.

Diane & Andy Hitzel came over for a visit yesterday morning, along with Gloria & Frank King. We had a nice chat sitting on our patio and it was a great chance to catch up. Unfortunately the photographer (yours truly) wasn’t on the ball and didn’t get a picture.

Later in the afternoon, our long-time friends Geoff & Nancy Justiss came over for happy hour.

Gigi made a new friend, spending the whole time with Nancy petting and cuddling with her.

Today, after a morning rehab session for Don and a chiropractor session for me, we went to Jil & Tom Mohr’s place at the Escapees RV park in Benson for a gathering. Geoff & Nancy have been parked next to them for a few days, and are leaving tomorrow. Jil’s garden is lovely.

There’s a unique ocotillo nearby, with a single branch splitting into several more at a very high level, where most ocotillos branch out from ground level.

The blossoms look healthy and are a vivid shade of orange (or is that red?).

We met Tom’s college roommate Henry, visiting from New York.

Most of the others were people we know or think we have probably met at some point in the past. Here are Rita and Ann.

Tom & (sorry, didn’t remember his name).

I love Nancy’s wine glass. The levels are for Typical day, Rough day and Don’t even ask!

It was a fun time and we enjoyed seeing everyone. Thanks for hosting, Jil and Tom!
