I know it is a bumpy and dusty road, but driven at about 12 mph it isn't bad in a Jeep.<br /><br />Never thought about just relaxing at the palm trees. I bet it would be beautiful at sunset. Maybe tonight I will just do that.<br /><br />I too am hoping for a quiet day.

Plenty of sunshine, solar panel working, easy chair, cold drink, and of course Yuma is front and center. Looks like that 1st step out your door is a real doozy. Mittry Lake is so scenic and peaceful when they're not shooting. 🌵🌷🐢🐕🌞Moonfly13https://www.blogger.com/profile/10205504180588291323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220245417166381981.post-49111162846789746902018-01-17T07:25:42.464-06:002018-01-17T07:25:42.464-06:00Chores accomplished and the rest of the day spent ...Chores accomplished and the rest of the day spent relaxing. Sounds like an excellent day to me. The noise of the morning would upset HRH Miss Kitty as well, like Yuma she doesn't like loud noises, gunfire or explosions. <br /><br />I don't think it really matters which is up or down, the sun does both once a day and the pictures are excellent. One could not hope for more.

(Great pictures of those palms along them reflecting in the lake.) Tom missed out going back for his date shake when we did not stay. We may have to take a ride that way so he can have his. Hope for Yuma's sake tomorrow morning is quieter.
