Spring...

Hi Friends,

I know it's been a while since we wrote.  Last weekend was nothing short of a disaster.  We attempted to move from the RV park we've been at since September to a lot nearby.  We had electrical issues with the RV but finally got it moved.  After leveling it at the new site, we couldn't get the electric to work at all.  It was Sunday, so we were stuck.  Luckily, a good friend let us spend the night with the cats in her spare room.  Tight squeeze, but beggars can't be choosy.

On Monday we went to Roswell with the RV for repairs.  They replaced a dead battery and installed a new converter.  We returned to our new 'home', leveled the unit once again and tried to turn on the electric.  Long story short, the electric on his property was not properly installed - supposed to be 50AMPs but not.  So we are back here at the RV park temporarily. 

We are still looking for a new 'home'.   The RV park has changed hands and the new managers want to get rid of the monthly residents and replace us with the daily visitors instead.  With little choices of where to go, we are not sure where we will end up.  KOA north of town is a long drive and their water is awful.  White's City is close to the CAVE but far from town where we have laundry and grocery stores.  Maybe I'll get lucky and find another job somewhere else.  Send good thoughts our way please!

Enough complaining.  I did title this post 'spring' and the desert is starting to awake from it's winter hiatus.  Mescal is blooming a fragrant purple flower.  It reminds me of lilacs.  Yuccas are also blooming a lovely white/creme color flower.  We could certainly use some rain, less wind and less heat.  We are already hitting the 90's.  I guess a hot summer is just around the corner.

Thinking about all of you.  Miss you and think of you often.

Love to all,

Val & John and the kitties.....
