It's about time.

Many of you can relate to Working long hours at your career. Raising your families. Buying a home and paying all the bills related to being homeowners and parents. We're now retired and don't need all that work and expense. Now "It's about time" and what we do to follow our dreams.

Sunday Drivers Change Our Plans.


Our Location today is at the La Posa South, LTVA, Quartzsite, Arizona.

After spending nearly an Hour trying to attach pictures to last night’s Blog I finally just published it without any because they just wouldn’t upload. We both slept soundly waking totally refreshed. Once we were back on the Computers this morning I gave it another try. I wanted to scream at my Computer but knew it was the fault of our Verizon MiFi when every picture I wanted to add loaded with no problems.
When we had Limited Plans that were costly through Verizon they seemed to eat up our Data as if it were water. On the Unlimited Plan that we have now we don’t use as much Data but when we reach the 15 Gigabyte level they slow us down and if there is a lot of Cell Traffic on the Cell Towers closest to us pictures are not an option.
For a change of pace we decided we were going to go see a movie at the Theaters in Parker this afternoon. We had Italian Wedding Soup along with Cheese Sticks for lunch topped off with a Yogurt cup and Cookies for dessert. We were leaving the LTVA before 12:30.
We’ve all heard or used the term Sunday Drivers in reference to people who drive below the speed limit sight seeing with a line of traffic behind them. The roads were full of them today. With a steady stream of traffic heading into Quartzsite it was impossible to pass them and when it came to the Passing Lanes they would drive Two abreast blocking any traffic from passing. It felt like it was planned.

We arrived at the Theaters at 1:45 so that worked out to Seventy-Five Minutes to travel Forty Miles. The movie we had planned to see had already started and it turned out to be a Horror Movie which neither of us are fans of so we headed over to Walmart where we spent the next Hour and a Half getting Groceries.
These Grapefruits were the size of Cantaloupes.
We walked out with little more then what was on our Shopping List but we were missing one lone thing. We drove across to Safeway where we were able to find the Nutmeg that Walmart didn’t have.
Knowing that as soon as got Home we would be busy putting all our groceries away we decided to grab a bite to eat before heading back. Since we have lots of the same fast food places in Quartzsite as well as in Windsor I chose Jack-in-the-Box. The couple times that we’ve eaten there before the food was Tasty and Filling at a reasonable price. Today’s visit did not disappoint either.
Going with the Flow of Traffic we were Home in Forty-Five Minutes with no Stunt-Driving like that Idiot I mentioned in last night’s Blog. We even got a few pictures of the Sun as it slid behind a Cloud Bank before it set.

Even though the Truck could be ready for pickup tomorrow evening we have other plans. Thank you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be Safe and Enjoy!

It’s about time.
