We are settled in the Casino Del Sol parking lot. It may seem like a strange place to be camping but they allow camping for free for an unlimited time, unless they have a major event in their outdoor concert arena. It is an RV constantly evolving community, from B Vans to semis. Everyone is looking for a place to camp for the night.
There is a population of travelling RVers that don't want to stay in regulated RV parks. Casino del Sol provides a wonderful place to stay with the option to eat buffets, gamble on the slots and even play bingo. Our neighbours from Abottsford told us they have won almost $1000 playing bingo, maybe beginners luck, as they have never played bingo before, Lol
We have spent a couple of days unwinding but also doing the maintenance chores to restore our rig to its clean state after the long trip from Rockport. I have been able to do a little sketching/painting in the mornings.
Bob and I are both enjoying being back in Arizona. The weather is wonderful; cool nights and warm, sunny, dry days. I keep in touch daily with Sherry, who is in Melaque now, and we exchange our journal paintings. We inspire each other and it is a special way of seeing how we each are evolving in our journalling styles.
Now that we, and our rig, are clean, we will take a few days off and tomorrow plan to revisit the San Xavier Mission. When we were last here almost 5 years ago it was under exterior renovations. It is a beautiful Spanish Mission and we look forward to seeing it in its restored condition.
We have had two Casino buffet dinners and tonight we ate at "home" ...it's a toss up which one I enjoy more:) ....buffets, we over-eat, but also get a lot of choices. The salad bar is a treat as we don't carry all the vegetables and greens to make great salads. Balance is good....the days seem to be getting noticeably longer. I'm not sure if it is because the days are warmer and we tend to leave the door open longer than we did in Rockport or the winter in the south is acually behind us. Whichever it is I am happy for the warmth and dry weather,
This is a rather disjointed post.....unfortunately my thoughts don't always flow smoothly and today I'm feeling unsettled, both in my sketching and my blogging....tomorrow is another day and new experiences and inspiration are just around the corner.
