Moving Day

We had a leisurely moving day. We started early, as always. Guess we are all getting used to Gabi getting up at 0-dark-early. At least we are all able to go back to bed for a while!

After fixing breakfast, we decided to get in a bit of pool time. When we arrived, the regular pool was occupied with an aquacize class. I think Max's comment was something to the effect.... the only bad thing about these retirement resorts is all the old people. Grin. I know, I know.... we qualify for that as well!

The lap pool was open so I was able to get in some laps. Been a long time since I've done any real swimming. And while it IS like riding a bike (i.e. you always remember how), I certainly didn't remember it EVER being that hard! It turns out that swimming is a good way to get exercise, I guess.

After that, we started packing up for the move. I had arranged to get us a late checkout today.... 2pm instead of 11am. Glad that I did. We pulled out of the park at 1:59pm. A whole minute to spare! :) I've discovered that since we've become rvers (or perhaps it is because we are retired), we don't have "much hurry" in us.

We moved on to Willcox, AZ. It was only about a 1 1/2 hour drive, so it seemed like an easy day! Why Willcox? Well, to go to the Rex Allen Days celebration, of course! Who??? You mean that you don't know who Rex Allen was? Wry grin. Well, neither did I, so don't feel bad. Apparently Rex Allen was one of the cowboy crooners, ala Roy Rogers or Gene Autry. And Willcox was his hometown. So every year they have a weekend celebration to honor him. Really. You can read about the celebration at this web site.

Actually, the main reason we came here is to meet up with our friends, Ron and Judy O. Judy is originally from Willcox so she is in town to see her family. We are really just along for the ride.

More about the fun in Willcox later.

Cheeers,
