Rainbows and Sunsets

Not much happening here at Emerald Cove. We are still working through our spring cleaning list. Have most of the inside done. We will get to the outside one of these days.

We've been playing Bingo on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We go over to the Blue Water Casino on Tuesdays and we play here at the park on Thursdays. Other than our first buy in, we have played on their money!!

The weather has been nice. Shorts weather for the last week. Yesterday Ed played golf for the first time. But today we finally had the rain that has been predicted for the past few days. It rained most of the day, never really hard, just enough to wet the ground. At least we are not on the east coast. Can't believe the amount of snow they have had this year! Sorry guys but I think this rain is coming your way and it will probably be more snow!!

The rain stopped about 5:00. We were outside cooking some steaks and saw this double rainbow. Can't really see the second one but its there.








A little while later we took this picture of the sky. Clouds make the sunsets so pretty. This was an awesome sky!!



Tomorrow is the Super Bowl. Our team is not in it this year, so we don't really care who wins. We are going up to the clubhouse to watch the game on the big screen and we are in a couple of pools so that always makes it fun.

Spring Cleaning

Not much happening here at Emerald Cove. We have been doing some spring cleaning, getting all the sand and dust from our time in Quartzsite out. We have played Bingo a couple of nights and Ed has played some poker. We have yet to play the mini golf course they have here. We basically are being lazy and cleaning little by little. We went up to the bar last night for Karaoke.

We finally had the wiring for our direct tv fixed the right way. When we were in Quartzsite we had them come and install a new LNB on our dish so we now have a DVR and a separate receiver in the bedroom. I can watch something different now in the bedroom! I'm doing a happy dance.
We are still getting used to the DVR. We have recorded some shows and will start recording movies to keep.

Still have a list of chores to do...but then we are here for 5 weeks...Maybe it's time to go check out the casino!!
