Happy Valentines Day

Feb 8 - 14....Happy Valentines Day!.....Last week we went with Dixie's parents for an overnight trip to Yuma, AZ. We crossed the border and went to Algadones, Mexico once again - had to see the dentist again and stock up on our 'drugs' & liquor!!!!! We visited a couple different family friends while in Yuma. On the way home we stopped at the US Army Proving Grounds outside of Yuma where we watched the Golden Knights practice their parachute jumps. It was pretty amazing and quite a show. We saw several plane loads of jumpers - one of the elite team members was even a women who had completed over 1600 jumps! They jump from approx. 10,000 feet - you can't even seen them until they release their chute and then they have red smoke coming from one leg. It's hard to really get the full feeling from the photo. Yesterday we hit another golf course. Still not ready to attend Q school -- not even ready to start keeping score yet! They say I will get better with time & practice!!!!! I think I've heard that befo
