Monday Monday


I am up early and ready for our bus trip today to the Fort McDowell Casino for the day. I think Ft McDowell is north of Mesa so it will be about a 90 min drive.  It only costs us $5 each for the bus trip so that is the cheap part of the day. All we ask is that we get to play the slots for a few hours with out losing our allotment....if we win any money that is just a bonus.
Friday saw us drive up to the Mesa Market or as they used to call it "Mesa Swap Meet"  It was huge and just about anything you would want to buy. A massive amount of womens clothes (tops) and lots of jewllery but too big to cover it all in the 2 hours we were there. We then hopped over to Hobby Lobby so I could look for a few things I needed to add to my crafting needs. We were back home by supper time and wiped out. I have no idea how some snowbirds live in those huge cities with the ridiculas traffic.
Saturday morning I went into Casa Grande early to get 3 of my fingernails repaired and then to our craft class at In a Pear Tree.  This time we sat out side in the sun at a table on the sidewalk. There were 12 in the  class as we made our collaged Name plaque. Interesting techniques and fun people made it a great day. In the picture above that is my crafting friend Peg to my left. She is from Wisconsin and lives just down the street here at Sunscape.
And here is my finished basket that I made in the Basket Weaving class last week


Yesterday we had our friends Art and Carol Berg in for supper with lots of laughs, cards, wine and food. We went over to the Sky Diving and Wind Tunnel with them as they had never been there before. It was a very busy day there with lots of jumpers , lots of tandem jumps and may spectators,
