We have decided it's no use fighting this cold or blaming it on the desert dust and possible airborn bacteria. We could just as easy have colds at home. Actually the probability is greater. At least here we can sit in comfort inside or out. The heat from the sun has a healing effect like a hot cup of herbal tea. After five days we headed into town for propane, a few fresh groceries and some kind of cold medication. Bob seems to have got it the worst and is trying to knock the cough out of his chest.
Three hours in and around Yuma has pretty much finished us. Chores done, we head home to rest for the afternoon. It's never fun being sick but when you are you might as well just settle in and relax, letting nature take it's course. The old adage of rest and liquids is still pretty sound advice. We did add a few somewhat "natural" ingredients, except for the Robitussin.
Chilled Chardonney is a natural ingredient in my books. I guess I'm just not that sick because it sure feels and tastes good. (Salute! Marilyn :) and Sherry :)....Also our appetite hasn't diminished either. Pasta, prawns and coleslaw for dinner. Only thing missing is some ice cream but it is too far from the store to keep it in solid condition. Maybe a Valentines DQ Blizzard next time we go to town, hmmmm.....
Some Olympic coverage on TV and an early night.
I just can't stop taking pictures of this beautiful area. No matter what the conditions.....sunny, cloudy, combinations of both, the evening light on the Cargo Muchachos is always breathtaking.
I love my desert, dessert?? Both I think, lol....?
