Here it is Friday and we leave here tomorrow. So the one thing I hate to do while gone from home --- IS THE LAUNDRY. I'm spoiled by having my washer & dryer at home. Bob is very helpful and we do it together.

Always interesting to find out how things work at the any Laundry area, which this was a very nice clean Laundry area. This is a place you have to have a card with money on it and then you insert the card in the machines to get money into the washer/dryer. Would you believe the card cost $2.00 and then you put money on the card and yes, when you are done and whatever money is still on the card you lose it. It is a racket, if you live here you will be going back weekly, but if not it's not a good deal. We had finished the clothes - 5 loads and the socks weren't completely dry so you just put them back in and put the card in until they are dry, because the money will go the waste anyhow. So we only had something like $1.65 left on the care, not bad.

Except for the laundry set-up this has been a very nice park. We didn't have any problem with all the rains, our trailer was elevated from the road out front. It was very windy here last night, but with all these park model units you feel protected, not like in some campgrounds when you are the biggest.

This was actually from January 21, 2010:

Okay if you haven't yet seen on TV, ARIZONA IS FLOATING. All is fine with us. Sun City doesn't have storm sewers. They have these roads in this area sloped in the direction to get the water out to this next picture. We cancelled our plans to go with our friends to Sedona today. That was heading to the snow country, lots of snow falling up there. We have had around 2.6" of rain today. Sun City normally has only 3" of rain during the year. So glad we could be here for the great rain fall. From Tuesday's rain and today they say we've had 4.02" of rain, with the possibly of more tomorrow.

We went to our friends house today. Headed back to the trailer around 7:30 p.m. The road were unbelieveable. There was area that were really bad. The rain water from the side roads of the subdivisions have to come out to another road to work it's way to the 99th Street (where this picture is taken) and goes into this area between the north & south lanes of the road. Those areas where the side roads come out to meet another road were very very deep to get across, Bob estimated in some places it was a foot deep. Thank goodness we have the truck and not a car.

We are to leave here on Saturday. Sure hope everything dries up enough for us to leave here. All this started from California.

This is Fred Bush playing his own instrument. He can actually play a song on the instrument. He has glued little metal bells (without noise maker) to the finger tips of his golf gloves, he has a harmonica, metal washboard, and a cow bell attached to the side of the washboard. Really neat!!!
