Girls Weekend In Arizona....

I want to start by thanking my Aunt Sherri for her hospitality and it was nice to see everyone and spend time with each and everyone that was down there!!
It kinda started as a comment in passing in a conversation. When Sherri mentioned she was going down for a month I mentioned, I wanted to go because I had not been in forever. Next thing I know I am getting a text from Angela, she found reasonably cheap tickets and BAM we were going to Arizona.....

We left Oregon on a cold, foggy morning out of Eugene, arrived in Yuma in the sunshine. Had no problems witn our flights, everything went rather smooth (Damn some of those planes are small!). Waiting at the airport to be picked up and saw 2 fighter jets fly over, it was awesome, the boys would have loved it. Oh Yeah, this WAS a girl's weekend, so the hubby and chiclets were home, alone, without me :D
Had visitors from when we got there until time for bed, but it was really nice to sit back, relax, chat and drink.
We did manage to go to the flea market, got our walks in most mornings, took a nap one afternoon, went to Mexico, played cards, went to the casino and went shopping. I do have to say, walking the park in the morning was very peaceful. We also decided to go to the gym one night, at 10:15 PM, yes, I said PM!!! We got our exercise in and THEN (I was with a couple of Parkers hehehe) we still needed to go to WalMart so after leaving the gym all hot and sweaty we head to WalMart. I can honestly say I have never been to that store at that time of night, we left at 1:00...in the morning......that is sleeping time!! :D

Mom came and joined us on Friday, stayed Friday night and then headed back on Sat. While she was there, we went to Mexico for the day. What a good time we had. We walked around for a bit and looked at all the stuff for sale. Stopped and had shrimp tacos from a street type vendor, they were very tasty. Finally caught up with the rest of the gang at Paraiso. We spent the afternoon chillin and relaxing, (see the dead soldiers on the table!). Mom and Sherri had a manicure. It must have been good to end up with a $200.00 tab (Thank You Again, Raymond, Jerry and Gale!!) But finally it was time to head back across the border.


We did stop at the casino and spent a couple of hours, I think I basically broke even.

Sadly, we did only have about an hour and 1/2 by the pool on Saturday afternoon (I think we both took a nap again). We had planned on sitting by the pool on Sunday, but it was overcast and windy, so we went and had fish tacos at a street stand and went shopping.

Monday I had to leave to go home (my family was missing me) and I came home alone, Angela did't leave until Wednesday, brat!! Had a little trouble getting my suitcase closed and had to leave a bottle of booze in Arizona (it was the cream tequila too damn it!) and had to have Sherri and Angela wait at the curb when I checked in, in case I had to take something out of my suitcase. Fortunately it weighed 48 lbs, wheewwww just made it!

Had good flights home, everything was on time, no problems. Had such a wonderful time and can't wait to go back. Next yeat though it will be a full week and I am going to practice my card games so I can stay out of the asshole chair :D I am sure I am forgetting something, but it was a good trip.

Thanks again everyone, it was awesome!!!!
